The apostle Paul writes his letter to the Philippians from prison. He knows hardship, but he also knows the peace of God. This is because biblical peace, like hope, is based on a person and not on circumstances. Paul calls followers to rejoice in God at all times, to pray, to give thanks, and to think on what is good and true. Paul shows how these habits can lead to experiencing the peace of God even in the midst of great difficulty.
Read:
Philippians 4:1-9
Reflect:
Make a list of all the instructions Paul gives in Philippians 4:1-9 (i.e. “stand firm in the Lord,” “live in harmony,” etc).
Observe your list and imagine making each one into a habit. What would those habits practically look like in your daily life? How do you think those habits would eventually lead to an experience of God’s peace?
Review verses 7 and 9. What do you observe? What do these verses tell us about the protective nature of God’s peace? Express your gratitude for his protection now.

About this Plan
The Christ Tree contains countless sprigs of fir, representing each of us. No two sprigs are the same and they come together to form a magnificent sight. Each one is unique, yet an essential part of the whole, just as we are described in 1 Corinthians 12. We hope you will join us as we read The One Advent plan and celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior.
