> My life with Christ is not one characterized by wild coincidences. In one word, peace. I may be unhappy, confused, angry, hurt, whatever else, but amidst it all, there is peace in living an interactive life with God: praying and studying the Word and so forth. Yeah, I know you can come up with alternative explanations for that, too: I started out by saying this isn't something I can simply communicate to you. When all is said, I'm still the one with the personal experiences to account for.

Philippians 4:7 says "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Basically, what you said. The peace of God transcends ALL understanding, so what's the point in trying to figure it out logically? Last time I checked, logic was a significant part of traditional understanding. Without faith, you can't see God's peace. But, like you said, Sam, you know it.
