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

Christ never promised we would be without worry. As we witness sadness and pain, sorrow tries to convince us we will never be strong. We become weary, ashamed to admit we are weak. But Jesus reminds us we don't have to pretend with Him. He knows the source of our frailties.

He sees each tear that falls and knows when we're hurting. He knows how to heal what is broken. He reminds us how to find strength and feel the peace of His presence. He covers all wounds and bandages sores of the soul.

Every choice we make to walk in faith will help us gain new perspective. God will arm us with everything we need to surrender the burdens of our hearts. He will guide and provide for our days and help us remember who will take care of everything we need.

Jesus will help us overcome as we learn to TRUST. He will lead us to a place of calm and love us through whatever happens in our lives. We must put our hope in Him and never doubt His ability to guide us. Better days are coming! We must remain faithful and believe God will take care of those He loves.

Dear God, Thank you for Your mighty strength! Oh, how we need to fill ourselves full of Your greatness. We will seek You with all of our hearts, acknowledge Your holiness and humbly welcome needed PEACE. Thank you for Jesus and the power of His love! Thank you for loving us through our weakness. We will love You all of our days and never doubt Your ability to help us overcome. Thank you, Lord! Thank you for loving us, no matter what! Amen
