Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. 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 understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
When you step onto that path and follow the Word you will partake in God's grace and peace: The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
"...In this world you will have tribulation, but BE OF GOOD CHEER, I have overcome the world". John 16:33
When I find myself disappointed or discouraged - I can become bitter toward everyone (world, devil, Christ). I ultimately come to realize that there is no deliverence or salvation through myself or others.
Then Jesus turned to the Twelve and asked, "Are you also going to leave?" Simon Peter replied, "Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words that give eternal life. We believe, and we know you are the Holy One of God." — John 6:67-69 NLT
Exactly! "Lord, to whom would we go?" Amen!
The Lord your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.”
Zephaniah 3:17
