Peace in action

Philippians 4:7 "and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
I have thought quite a lot about the peace of God in the last two weeks.  Two weeks ago my wife and I kissed and said "see you in a while." She was then taken into surgery where two physcians surgically repaired the firing system in her heart. The great peace we both sensed is almost beyone description. In normal situations I could have been a little anxious but this case was different. We had prayed and thought a lot about the day prior to its events.  The God of peace placed a guard on both our hearts and we did just fine. Two weeks later we are still at peace and recovery is well in progress.
Are you going or perhaps going to go through a place where you need peace then call upon the Prince of Peace. That is the name isaiah the prophet declared would be for our coming savior. 
Lean on Him. Read His word and find the peace of God that makes all the difference in our lives.
May God add His richest blessings upon your life today.
