You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. Isaiah 26:3 NKJV

If you’re wondering where your peace went, consider what you’ve been thinking on. You can quote the first part till you’re blue in the face, but the bottom line is, you will never have the first without the second.

I’ve had to practice that countless times over the span of my life. It’s so easy to get your mind stuck in your problems that I’ve had to shake my head hard and ask myself, “What are you doing? Will you never learn?”

But trust in God is only learned by firmly fixing your mind on who God is and what He’s capable of doing. You have to constantly remember what He’s done in your past and know He hasn’t changed and isn’t likely to.

So if you desire peace, examine your terrain. Get back on track and cast it all on Him. If He needs your help, He’ll ask. You just focus on keeping your peace.
