The Lord’s Peace Guards Your Heart

Too often I find myself in a place of needing to be guarded. I worry that I will not be able to make it.

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

See here that whatever my need I can lean on the peace of God and receive that which is needed. I forget that His peace is greater than anything I could think of. I am only man and will not be able to grasp it all, however as I have written in the past, I know, so therefore I should lean on that knowledge for the guarding I require.

God is my all and all. He guards me against any and all that may come. It is His peace that grants me the guard that I need and in that peace is where I have to remember to lean for understanding of all.

What is it that comes at you where you may need guarding? Are you trying to understand it all on your own? What if you were to allow God’s peace to lead to your understanding?
