Perfect peace ...

Jason directs our thoughts today:

You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord is the Rock eternal.
Isaiah 26:3-4

Be still and know that I am God,
Be still and know that I am God,
Be still and know that I am God.

Do this! Do that! Be over here at this time, wearing this, juggling that, while you are whistling this tune and standing on your head! The demands of life can be so overwhelming sometimes. They aren’t always this crazy. I do not believe we have to let it get to that point. We have great intentions of doing our best and then one thing is added to our pile and one more and then something bad happens that adds to our time and so on an so on. I know you feel it. I know you are feeling it right now.

Do you feel this way? I am going to write this quote down from Max Lucado and leave you for the day to dwell on this thought.


“Who is the active one? Who is in charge? The shepherd. The shepherd selects the trail and prepares the pasture. The sheep’s job—our job—is to watch the shepherd. With our eyes on our Shepherd, we’ll be able to get some sleep. ‘You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You!’”

Find you a quiet place and just keep singing this song over and over to yourself and allow His peace to settle on your heart!

Be STILL and know that I am God,
Be STILL and know that I am God,
Be STILL and know that I am God.

Blessings for Peace!

Jason
