Looking at me, she said, “I give up; what did you learn about yourself
today that I don't already know?” 

Clearing my throat, I said, “I have learned that I need ice cream to
deal with any problem that comes my way.” 

“Well,” she said sarcastically, “that's one good excuse to get your ice
cream.” 

“Oh, no,” I said enthusiastically, “I really mean that ice cream helps
me solve my problems.” 

I tried to explain to her that every flavor of ice cream helps me solve
a particular problem. I'm not sure she believed me, but I was going to 
prove that that was true. 

Later that evening, after supper, we watched TV in the living room, and
then she went out into the kitchen. When she returned, she had a bowl 
of chocolate fudge ice cream, and looking at me, she said, “I'm not 
sure if this is chocolatey enough to fix your problem tonight.” 

Munching on my ice cream I thought of a Bible verse. Philippians 4:6-7,
“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication 
with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the 
peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts 
and minds through Christ Jesus.” 

Nobody can live without problems. That's just life. But, as a Christian,
I have a special resource called prayer. My prayer connects me with 
God's peace “which passeth all understanding.” 

There is no problem that in anyway compromises God's peace that He has
for me.
