Gratitude Brings Peace
Wes McAdams   -  

Nearly everyone wants to experience peace, especially the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding. We want this peace guarding our hearts and minds. However, sometimes we fail to do what Paul told the Philippians to do in order to have this peace. It begins with this command, “Rejoice.” How can, “Rejoice” be a command? How can we rejoice “always,” in every circumstance? What if we don’t feel joyful? Rejoicing, even when we don’t feel like it, is often the secret to feeling the joy and the peace we long to feel. (Philippians 4:4-9)
