Peace has its own multiplier


Philippians 4:6-7 

6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving,

let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding,

will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

 

 

Peace has its own multiplier

 

Gentle, serene and quiet …How does one describe peace?

When the breeze blows for a while who can stop its flow?

Delivered from the riot only the selfish to please

Delivered from all the guile one can bestow

 

It is not within self where turbulence resides?

Is not the trigger in one’s heart at your own fingertips?

Walking with an elf instead of with Jesus side by side

to help us understand that His Peace is His simple gift
