I met my husband while I was a missionary in Hong Kong. He had swum out of China after the Cultural Revolution. We have been married 32 years and have four children (2 biological and 2 adopted), ages 22-30. My mother also lives with us (she just turned 90). I am truly a blessed woman.

Peace

"Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.

"Peace from him who is and who was and who is to come.—The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

"Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!”—“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. . . . Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”

“The Helper . . . the Spirit of truth.”—The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace.—The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.

“My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” And he said to him, “If your presence will not go with me, do not bring us up from here. For how shall it be known that I have found favor in your sight, I and your people? Is it not in your going with us?”
