The Imperative of Peace
October 13, 2026
When I taught English to Hispanic students, I often explained that an imperative sentence is not a suggestion—it’s a command. That memory comes rushing back when I read Paul’s words in Philippians 4:6: “Be anxious for nothing.” Paul isn’t offering soft advice; he’s giving a Spirit-led directive meant to shape how we respond to worry. In this devotional, we explore how prayer, gratitude, and intentional thought can help us obey this command and experience the peace of God guarding our hearts and minds.
