Bible verses about peace.
Peace appears in Scripture amid real uncertainty. In John 14, Jesus comforts his disciples before his departure. Paul connects peace with prayer in Philippians 4, while Isaiah and the Psalms give words to trust. These passages invite a slower reading of what it means to rest in God while life continues around us.

Stay with a word.
