Fruit of the Spirit - Lesson 4 - Peace vs Anxiety


Welcome To Glenda Gardener's Garden :





Memory Verse :
Philippians 4:6-7 New King James Version (NKJV)
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Doe Doe and The Peaceful Ball (An Object Lesson on Spiritual Peace)  :



Bible Lesson :  
 

Mark 4:35-41 Jesus in the storm .. Peace be Still

In this story Jesus and his disciples are traveling from one side of a to another in a boat, but a storm ensues. Those with Jesus begin to develop extreme anxiety for the situation they are in.  They have no control over the storm and the boat is taking in water.  A sinking boat is never a fun place to be.  All this time though, Jesus is asleep - Jesus is peaceful. No matter the storm or the rocking of the boat, Jesus had peace.  When He is awoken he takes care of the storm.  We have that peace as well, we have Jesus - peaceful as ever - holding us in His grip.. ready to calm any storm we may find ourselves in.  Thank the Lord for Him, and the peace He wants us to have!
