Finding Perfect Peace in the Storm
Thou wilt keep {him} in perfect peace, {whose} mind {is} stayed {on thee}: because he trusteth in thee. {perfect...: Heb. peace, peace} {mind: or, thought, or, imagination}
— Isaiah 26:3
So how do we stay our minds on God? It starts with surrender. We must let go of our need to control and trust that God is working everything out for our good. We must make time to reflect on His presence and power in our lives. And we must speak His Word to ourselves, reminding ourselves of His promises and character.
Prayer
Lord, help me to fix my mind on you in the midst of life's challenges. Help me to trust in your presence and power, and to experience perfect peace in every storm. May my mind be stayed on you, and may I know your peace that surpasses all understanding.
