“A fixed, constant attention to the
promises, and a firm belief in them, would prevent solicitude and anxiety about
the concerns of this life. It would keep the mind quiet and composed in every
change, and support and keep up our sinking spirits under the several troubles
of life….Christians deprive themselves of their most solid comforts by their
unbelief and forgetfulness of God’s promises.
For there is no extremity so great but there are promises suitable to
it, and abundantly sufficient for our relief in it.” Samuel
Clarke
“His love is
unfailing, His Word unchangeable, His power ever the same; therefore the heart
that trusts Him is kept in ‘perfect peace’…I know He tries me only to increase
my faith, and that it is all in love.
Well, if He is glorified, I am content.” Hudson Taylor
HEART SAVOR
- · Perfect peace is the result of my trust in God and His precious promises. It is not found in my circumstances, places, people or things.
- · The peace of God transcends all understanding and guards my heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
- · Jesus’ peace is not the paste gem variety the world offers – it is complete lacking nothing.
