My Life Verse


2009
11.23

   In the middle of a very bad time in my life the Lord gave me this verse: 

Philippians 4:7   and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

I don’t claim to understand it. But that is exactly what He does. All hell can be breaking loose and we can have that wonderful peace of God. He’s our calm in the storms of  life. He has each of His children in the palm of His hands and nothing can touch us that has not been filtered through His fingers. And since I know and believe that He only wants for my best, I can trust Him to handle everything in my life (every detail). I can trust Him through bad times, trust Him with my finances, trust Him in sickness, trust Him in death. Isaiah 26:3 says   You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. 
That kind of peace under pressure is supernatural. The world can’t give it to you. No amount of money can buy it. It’s a gift of God’s grace. So who or what are you trusting in today?
