Bible Verses About Peace (For an Anxious Heart)
Peace in the Bible is not the absence of trouble. It is a rest given to you inside it. These are the passages families read when the world will not stop.
The verses
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
