PEACE ON EARTH - BEYOND UNDERSTANDING

Baca: Philippians 4:6-7

"Don\'t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God\'s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." ( Philippians 4:6-7 ) NLT

Thoughts for Today

Worry. Probably one of the most common traps we fall into. And one of the most useless and damaging. Worry has never solved a problem. But it has caused stress, ulcers, depression, despair, fear, anxiety, and much more.

Today's scripture tells us to replace worry with prayer. Instead of worrying, we are to tell God our needs, remember all he has done for us in the past, and thank him for his faithfulness. As we remember that faithfulness, our faith will grow to trust him now. Then we can experience peace so great that it is beyond our understanding!

And as we live in Christ Jesus and walk in obedience to him, God's peace will guard our hearts and minds. Instead of worrying, we will be enveloped in his peace.

Consider this …

Are you worried about something? Finances . . . your job . . . a failing relationship . . . a rebellious child . . . health problems. The list of things we can worry about seems endless, but the answer is always the same.

Talk to God about the problem. Remember his faithfulness in the past. Spend time thinking about all he has done for you. Make a list! Then thank him . . . and determine to trust him in your current situation. Circumstances may have changed--but he hasn't.
