Peace

(The pictures are the result of a Google search for "Peaceful Photo- graphy.")

Mr Danny had a wonderful lesson recently on Peace. I think we could all use a little of that in our hearts. Here are a few things that I wrote down and a few scriptures that were read.

* Peace is a harmon- ious relation- ship.

* Real peace is not absence of problems but presence of God.

* Without grace there is no peace.

* In John 14:27 Jesus says "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you."

* In John 16:33 Jesus says "These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world."

* Romans 5:1-2 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into grace by which we stand; and we exult in hope the glory of God.

* Philippians 4:4-7 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

I think the two pictures in the post below should be included in PEACE.

Yes Papa Joe! Not a worry in the world. Mommy and Daddy will look after me. If we only would remember our heavenly Father looks after us all the time we'd have that perfect peace. What precious pictures.
