Peace ‘in spite of’
At some point we all discover that there’s no safe harbor from storms; that peace is not the absence of storms, but (a) the assurance of God’s presence and protection in the midst of them; (b) the growth of our faith and character because of them; (c) His rock-solid promise to bring us through them stronger and wiser.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, 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.
