Scripture for the Peaceful Heart

Bible Verses About Peace

Peace in scripture isn't described as the absence of trouble — Jesus offered his peace "not as the world giveth," in the same breath as acknowledging trouble would still come. It's a peace available in the middle of difficulty, not only after it's resolved.

That's a different kind of peace than circumstances alone can offer, which is why it's described as passing understanding — it doesn't always make logical sense given what's happening.

Whatever's around you today, let these verses offer that steadier kind of peace. Try the Bible Verse Memory Game on the Verses4Emotions homepage.
