What a picture of peace personified was Jesus, as He slept in the midst of a storm that had his disciples in a state of panic (Mark 4:38). And the source of the peace He expressed? Total trust in and dependence on his Heavenly Father, apart from Whom He did nothing (John 5:19). This peace that passes understanding can be ours as well if we will simply let go, and trust Him with our very lives.
