Philipians 4:7

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7

I repeated this passage over and over this morning as I was walking to a class to give a final Powerpoint presentation to finish my Master's Degree. This verse is a comfort, not only in instances like this, but in many other areas of life, like the death of a loved one or when major catastrophes occur. I remember hearing someone over the radio (Christian station) say this verse as I was driving the morning of September 11, 2001 to pick my husband up when his car broke down. It was very calming to hear this passage then, just as it was to say them to myself this morning. If my children haven't memorized this verse, yet, they will when I get home! Hebrews 4:12 "For the Word of God is living and powerful..." Indeed, it is.
