Often times when we think of peace we often have a picture in our mind. Peace is sitting at the beach relaxing or listening to a gentle mountain stream. Peace is vacation. Peace is escape from the problems and troubles of life. The problem is that you can be in the most beautiful place and still be filled with worry, fear, and anxiety. You can live in a new home, drive a brand new car, just stepped into a new promotion at work and still have no peace. Peace is not everything always working out the way we want it to. Peace is not the absence of problems. Peace is the presence of God.
