I love God, my husband was my high school sweet heart, and still is today. I’m a proud mother of the four most wonderful, sweetest, and cutest kids in the world! In addition, I am a mental health counselor. I love to write! I write from the most honest places within my heart and pray my experiences are able to help and encourage others on their journey through life.

Peace Beyond All Understanding

“Peace Beyond All Understanding”

When the night feels long and hope runs thin.
When fear is knocking, wanting in.
I will lift my eyes, I will speak His name.
Jesus, you’re my shelter in the wind and rain.

Because of Jesus, I won’t be shaken. He Is my fortress, I won’t be moved.

God’s Word points me to truth.
God’s word leads me to hope.
God’s word guides me to the light.

I will not be anxious, I will not fear.
In every moment, Jesus is near.
In times of distress, He’s the Almighty Counselor.
With prayer and praise, I will lift my hands.
Thank you, Jesus, for catching me when I fall.
Your peace is deep like the ocean.
Your love flows like a river.
You always answer when I call.

Jesus, guard my heart, from the forces of evil.
Your love is my fortress.
Your love is my protector.
Your love is my shield.
I know, your peace surpasses all.
In Jesus’ name, I praise you!

Troubles will come, like the waves crashing into the shore.
I will not fear, for I know you are near.
I won’t run, I know you’re by my side.
With calm assurance, I will abide.
In grateful prayer, lifted to your throne.
I find release from my troubles.
I’ll gladly trade this world’s chaos for the peace that surpasses all..

I have no need for worry, there’s no need for anxiety.
Jesus, you hold everything together and you’re the breath of life.

I will not be anxious, I will not fear.
In every moment, Jesus is near.
In times of distress, He’s the Almighty Counselor.
With prayer and praise, I will lift my hands.
Thank you, Jesus, for catching me when I fall.
Your peace is deep like the ocean.
Your love flows like a river.
You always answer when I call.

Unconditional peace this world can’t provide.
Jesus your peace comes from grace and mercy, in which I’ll abide.
Perfect peace keeps my heart and calms my mind.
Jesus, thank you! You are perfect and kind.

Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
