blessed assurance
Faith's confident peace
Blessed assurance is a state of confident faith, particularly the conviction that one's salvation is secure.
The phrase comes from a popular 19th-century Protestant hymn and carries strong evangelical Christian associations: She spoke with blessed assurance about her place in heaven.
More loosely, it can describe any serene certainty: He proceeded with blessed assurance that everything would work out.
