"So what's the secret? How does one respond to grace and establish a personal relationship with God? Well, you can ask Jesus into your life with a simple prayer of commitment such as the one below. Note that these words are not magical. If the sentiments expressed in the prayer do not exist in your heart, nothing will happen. However, if you truly desire God you will find Him. And when you find Him, you will know "the peace of God that surpasses all understanding" (Philippians 4:7)."

That verse from Philippians is incomplete. It comes from producing action. Here is what is before Phil 4:7- Prayers!! But like the main issue of the article you have to truly live the life.

Philippians 4:6-7

"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 your minds in Christ Jesus."

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by Prayer..................................

Action! Action! Action!

Let's Not Forget It Either!!
