What the Bible says about you....Day 35

You will always have peace


Philippians 4:7

"and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

There is plenty to worry about. The news is replete with one horrible story after another, each one can create more worry than the last.  The economy is up and down. The threats to our lives because of terrorist, disease, relationship failure and so many other things.

In the middle of it all God promises peace. How can he do that?

Despite the craziness of the world and all of the trouble we face on a daily basis, God is in control. At least He wants to be! When we don't trust the Lord with the struggles, fears, and concerns of our daily lives, we will never have peace. However, when we by faith, choose to trust the Lord with all of our struggles we can have peace.

Think about what you are worried about, what keeps you up at night, what gives you heartburn then by faith, ask the Lord to show you how to release it into His hands. He wants to take it trust Him with it. Trust Him to care for your problems and struggles. 

He will give you peace.
