And the peace [tranquility] of God,

Which passes all understanding,

Will garrison your hearts

And minds [thoughts] in Christ Jesus.

(Philippians 4:7)

The sentiment (though not the theology) back atcha! 🙂

You know I got to wondering. If such peace did not bypass our understanding would we really have peace? Now there is a mind bender for ya!!

Likely, we'd complain if even (only) full. Thankfully, He overflows our hearts and minds.

You wish for your mind to be occupied with stuff that passes all understanding?

I went to a Christmas concert the other day. This was the phrase that stuck most with me:

"Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me."
