Peace that passes all understanding. We hear about this so often and every time we go through something it is usually the first thing that someone will say to encourage us to hold on to hope and faith.

When we are hit with circumstances that we don’t understand and cannot control, we begin to feel like we are in a dark place where there is no one to help us see the light at the end of the tunnel. We are faced with decisions or loss and those seem to become the main focus of our minds.

My friend, rest assured that God has got the peace you need to navigate those rough waters. Everything we experience, He already knows about. Oh Sister, He does not want us to sit in turmoil while memories and life pass us by. He is wanting us to continue to be present even though we are in the middle of pain or decisions. That is why He promised us peace. When we cannot understand, He gives us peace that will understand it for us. It is the calm that breaks the storm and allows the pain to dissipate and the decision to seem small. When you give your stress to God, the peace that comes from hope in His love will descend up on us and remove the chaos. It is up to us to seek it and believe that He will take care of everything we may need.
Stand on the promise of God’s Word and know His peace.
