The peace of God is the antidote to the most endemic disease in our modern society: stress, depression, and anxiety. This peace is Christ’s gift to us: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid” (John 14:27).
It is an inner peace, a peace of the praying heart free from fear and worry and knowing that God loves us and holds us in His arms at every moment of our lives.
May “the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7).
