"And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:7
Maybe today, you just don't understand. You don't understand what is happening in your life, you don't understand the obstacle that you are facing, and you don't understand why God would allow this to happen. But let me tell you this, and I think that so many times people think that, when we have our faith and hope in God, that nothing bad can happen to us. But listen here, God never said that bad things would never happen, in fact, He said that they will. But what we have to remember is that, during these times when bad things do happen to us, God did promise us that His peace will surpass and overcome anything that we don't understand, any obstacle we face, and any situation we find ourselves in.
So you see. rather than stressing out over what we do not understand, rather than trying to figure out your obstacles and explain why something is happening to you, you need to tap into that peace that God has for you. That peace that will cover all of your problems and bring you such a sense of relief that speaks within you and says, "you don't have to figure it all out." And do you know why? Because God's got it taken care of, and all that He is asking you to do is to be at peace with that fact. Trust in Him and just be still. For when you do, that peace will guard your heart. It will guard your mind, and you won't have to figure it all out any more. You won't have to search for the understanding and feel the worry, because you are going to be overcome by the peace that God has for you.
