It is possible for the soul to be in deep peace, even when it is in the midst of danger. Not just an ordinary "gotta get away" kind of peace, but the kind of peace that overpowers and subdues stress and depression, so that it can no longer cause the heart, mind and spirit to be agitated or fearful.

This kind of peace is divine tranquility, a higher peace where you yet trust in the Lord, when you have been stripped of your property, and pushed into poverty, when you have gone from being healthy, to needing a helping hand, when you have spent your days praying for those who have been imprisoned, to spending your days as a prisoner yourself.

Whatever your troubles, don't let it shake your confidence in God, but rather stand firm in the peaceful presence of God. His peace will encourage you, and strengthen you to continue on with your work, a divine tranquility that cannot be experienced in no other.
