[4] Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! [5] Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. [6] Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. [7] And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

If we want to have peace of mind,

such a Father, such a Saviour,

If we idolize any earthly good
our peace will depart,
but keep the world under our feet,
and the peace of God shall keep our heart and mind.
Philippians 4:5 “Let your gentleness be evident to all.”
2. HOW CAN WE GET THIS PEACE?
PEACE also comes from knowing,
when you have been an instrument of God!
When we run alone, in this world, it’s a RACE,
When we run with God, it’s GRACE,
That leads to ‘Peace that passes ALL understanding!’.
Exodus 33:21
Then the Lord said, ‘There is a place near me where you may stand’.
To God be ALL the Glory!
