Peace can be hard to feel peaceful if you’re experiencing difficult circumstances, such as the loss of a job or the loss of your home in the wake of a natural disaster. Stress or anxiety: You may also have trouble finding inner peace if something is stressing you out or upsetting you. Peace is being able to grow and thrive and be who you are, doing something you’re good at, such as cooking or dancing, is a good way to enjoy yourself and have a sense of achievement.

The Bible speaks extensively about peace, both as a gift from God and a responsibility of believers. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. The Bible refers to God as “the Lord of peace” (2 Thessalonians 3:16). Ultimately, all peace comes from God.
