We've been looking at Philippians 4:8 for two weeks. I sure hope you've enjoyed the challenge of focusing your thinking. When I was studying this verse, I looked at the context - the verses before and after. I found it very interesting that 4:7 talks about the peace of God and 4:9 talks about the God of peace. This peace is like the bread in a sandwich...it holds everything together! The definition of peace in these two verses in the original Greek means quietness, rest, set at one again. Like I said earlier, the world could use some peace!!
A little challenge for the weekend: Are you a troublemaker or a peacekeeper?
The Last of the Vacation Pics
Really, these are the last pictures from our Carolinas vacation. There are so many to choose from, but I picked my favorites from baby geese to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Ocracoke Island, Charleston and Boone Plantation. Enjoy!
