People around me describe me as a person of peace. Since childhood I am known to be a peacemaker and to be against war. As much as I love peace, I have difficulty finding peace and calm in my thoughts.

Therefore, I love Paul’s affirmation in the Bible: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

What encouragement that we can bring all of our needs to Good and get peace in return.

do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7
