I KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT YOU

 

 

 

 

 

I KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT YOU

 

 

I know

Something about you

 

You are

Desperately searching for peace

 

I know

Because I am too

We ALL are

 

I know enough

To know

We will never find it

In trying to find

Fame and fortune

 

Been there

Done that

 

All we have to do

Is turn on

The 5 o’clock news every day

To see the lives

Of the rich and famous

Crashing before our very eyes

 

“My peace I leave with you

My peace I give to you

I do not give to you

As the world gives

Do not let your hearts be troubled

And do not be afraid”

 

I know something about you

I know something about me too

 

You will Not find peace

In sexual lustful inclinations

You will Not find peace

In any addiction

Drugs, alcohol, pornography

 

Been there

Done that

Just leaves you craving more

Feeling more and more empty

 

I know something about me

And know something about you too

 

We cannot

Live without peace

And that

We can only find peace

In the peace of God

 

The peace of God

Transcends all understanding

 

“Rejoice in the Lord always

I will say it again

Rejoice---let your gentleness

Be evident to all

The Lord is near

Do not be anxious about anything

But in everything

By prayer and petition

With Thanksgiving

Present your requests to God

 

And the peace of God

Which transcends all understanding

Will guard your hearts and minds

In Christ Jesus”                                                 Philippians 4:4-7

 

I know something about you---about me too

You can and will

Find your peace in God
