In the midst of troubles, peace can be found in Jesus. We all have times when we worry over our families, our health issues, finances and many various needs and situations. No matter the circumstances, Jesus has assured us that we can be at peace. He said in John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you.” In Phillippians 4:7, Paul tells us, “And the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” The peace of God will guard our hearts and our minds. God is in control, we know how the story ends and we are victorious over sin.
