Know, Love, Peace

Deuteronomy 7:9
Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.

Today’s verse sent me to this verse, “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7). There are also so many song lyrics going through my head right now as well. Such as:

To know know know him
Is to love love love him
And I do, and I do, and I do
(To Know Him Is To Love Him, Amy Winehouse)

Mama said there’ll be days like this,
There’ll be days like this Mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
(Mama Said lyrics, Shirelles)

We all experience “those days”. When they sneak up on us, we need to remember God has a peace to offer us. In order to accept this peace, we must first know in our heart the LORD our God is God; he is faithful, keeping his promises. When we know Him, we will love Him. When we love Him, we are ready to allow that peace, which transcends all understanding to guard our hearts and minds. Take time today to get to know Him before those days your mama told you about come calling.

Lord, thank you for knowing and loving me. Thank you for your peace that transcends all understanding. ~amen
