How do we learn to transition from a life dominated by worry to a life that is saturated with peace? In today’s passage, we find a simple, powerful, but often overlooked solution that points us to the source of peace available to us in Jesus.

Sometimes, as you run together toward Jesus, your legs can get tangled up with one another and you can stumble in the race. When that happens, it can hurt. It can be hard to get back up. What do you do when that happens? There’s help for you!
