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 4:7 NLT
Have you ever heard someone say, "I'm about to lose my mind!"
It might feel like it, but if you are trusting in Christ, your mind will not be lost, it will be guarded.
There's a peace when you are fully relying on God. It's hard to explain, it is just something you have to experience.
When you are trusting in Him and you know He will work everything for your ultimate good, the trials that come our way are less likely to overwhelm us.
I'm thankful for the peace He gives. I might not understand the circumstances I'm in, but I know, in the end, all will be well.
He's a good, good Father, you know ....
