 The Comet Swift - Tuttle has been observed by man, as far back as 69 BC. As the six mile wide comet travels through our solar system on its nearly 130 year journey around the sun, it leaves behind a trail of cosmic debris. Each year between August 9th & 13th, the Earth passes through the comet's orbit. As the comet's sand sized cosmic junk enters the Earth's atmosphere at roughly 133,200 MPH, it burns up setting off a celestial firework display known as the Perseids.
Like the comet's trail of debris, people sometimes enter our life and leave behind a trail of debris which sets off a display of emotional fireworks within us. But just as the Earth calmly glides through the debris in its path, we can also have a calm journey when we keep our minds fixed on the goodness of the Lord and not on the junk in our path. God's word says "He will keep us in perfect peace when our mind is stayed on Him" (Isaiah 26:3 paraphrased).
Therefore, "bring into captivity every thought... (2Co 10:5) and "forget those things which are behind..." (Phi 3:13). "Whatsoever things are... lovely... (and)... good... think on these things" (Phi 4:8) "and the peace of God...shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" (Phi 4:7).
