In Preparation of the Coming of Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:4-7)
Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again---rejoice! Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon. Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for what he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. These are very simple and basic verses to follow and yet we fail so miserably at experiencing peace. Why? I would venture to suggest that it is probably because we focus on peace. This old world likes to focus on the rewards rather than the process even to the point of disregarding the process altogether. We have everything revolving around peace. Yet the true peace from above comes through prayer. First of all though in this passage we are encourage to think of others through our joy and consideration in all we do.
