One of my favorite verses in the Bible is found in the book of Philippians - '...and the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ...' (4:7 - NIV). Today I focused on the '...transcends all understanding...' part. His peace is greater than anything we can understand. Take that in for a moment: it transcends all understanding! We cannot even grasp His peace in our minds!
This past week I was wrestling with a problem that I was dealing with that was affecting my family. It was an issue that I did not want to 'bother' God with. But my family reminded me, that when we surrender our will to God, He brings us peace. When I gave the problem to God and allowed Him to work in my life, He answered the prayer within 24 hours!
I am not going to tell you that is going to happen to everyone every time, but if we want God to bring peace in our lives, we must surrender our will to God. He will bring us peace!
