Peace that Passes Understanding

When life is in turmoil, what passages do you read and reflect on to find the peace of God and to experience the God of peace?

Over the past two months, I’ve face life’s turmoil ever since I heard those words that no one likes to hear from their doctor. “We’re going to need to do some tests.”

I’m pleased and thankful to share that, after weeks of feeling like a human pin-cushion, my doctor has finally given me a clean bill of health. But it was, to be frank, a scary few weeks.

We’re all different, so we all turn to different biblical passages to “fear not.” The following list contains the passages I turned to and meditated on repeatedly. For the words of each passage, feel free to read and/or download Scriptures to Meditate on for God’s Peace.
