Peace that exceeds understanding;

Just read an awesome post from the CBU website about finding God's peace.
Click here to look at the actual post (I highly recommend that you do!)


I enjoyed all the scripture included within the post---

Isaiah 48:22 -- "But there is no peace for the wicked," says the Lord.


2 Thessalonians 3:16 -- Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation. The Lord be with you all.


Isaiah 26:3 -- You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you.


Romans 5:1 -- Therefore, since we have been made right in God's sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.


John 14:27 -- I am leaving you with a gift-- peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid.


John 16:33 -- I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.


Psalm 85:8 -- I listen carefully to what God the Lord is saying, for he speaks peace to his faithful people. But let them not return to their foolish ways.


Romans 8:6 -- So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.


Philippians 4:6-7 -- Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live n Christ Jesus.


James 3:17-18 -- But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and wiling to yield to others. It is full of mercy and good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.
