More (DOP #23 2015)

Here I am trying to wrap my mind around peace, when the Bible describes Jesus peace as “a peace that surpasses all understanding”.  I have learned so much over the past two years of doing this, but it is humbling to note that Jesus has a peace that I will never be able to fully comprehend or understand.

In a way that is terrifying.  It almost makes me want to stop trying to understand what I can about peace.

Yet, in another way it is like reading a series of books, but knowing that you’ll never reach the end of the story, and the story will just keep getting better and better.   There is no limit to God’s peace.  There is nothing that he can not choose to fix.  The ocean seems like a muddle puddle in comparison to the depth of his peace.

I’m glad I haven’t reached the end of understanding.  I’m glad there is more to the story!
