Peace Under Pressure
We often feel like peace is only possible when things are easy & good. So when external pressures or an unhealthy pace cause build-up and eventually back-up, we find ourselves stressed or anxious and without peace. Philippians 4:4-9 (NIV) Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. In this message, Pastor Wes gives us 4 practices from Paul's letter to the Philippians to cultivate real, true peace. The kind that passes all understanding and that will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus!
