Peace!!
Peace- a state in which there is no war or fighting.
I've heard people say, "you have to have peace about a person," but I had never really understood what they meant... until I experienced what peace was not. The mind is truly a battlefield especially for those who have the Holy Spirit. .. you are constantly at war with your flesh.
So say a person enters your life.... He seems to have everything together, but something is off. You are constantly awakened with scriptures, and you're seeing posts everywhere that confirm this is NOT the person for you. You therefore have no peace about that person... now until you remove them or they leave you will not have a clear connection to God... All you will hear is static along with more confirmation.
I say all of this to say that we can't stop people from entering our lives, but allow yourself time to hear from God.... If you hear that this person is not for you take it in stride.
When you have peace in your mind you have time for prayer/ meditation within you thoughts.
Philippians 4:4-7 NIV
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 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.
