I was looking at my sister's blog, dejanandjulie.blogspot.com and was very blessed to read the phrase, "understanding will not bring you peace." How true that is! How often do I look for peace through strife or even noble sounding methods such as perseverance, diligence or spiritual activity.
We must look unto Jesus the Author and Finisher of our Faith (Heb. 12:2) understanding that real peace comes when our issues and concerns are raised unto Jesus in prayer. It is then that "the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard (our) hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:6-7).
So the peace we receive from Jesus is beyond our understanding and has nothing to do with our ability and everything to do with His. His peace will guard our heart and mind if we simply cast our cares upon Him (1 Pet. 5:7). Do you have that peace today?
