In this episode we take a deeper look at Isaiah 26:3 "you keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you."
We dive into what it means to have "perfect peace" and what the opposite of peace actually is. The mind is a powerful thing and our thoughts are often the thing that cause us so much suffering and confusion in this life. The amazing news is that Jesus promises us His peace that the world will never understand, not because of the absence of troubles but rather in the midst of them.
Psalm 112:6-8 "For the righteous will never be moved, he will be remembered forever. He is not afraid of bad news, his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord. His heart is steady, he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries."
The challenge is to take inventory of your thoughts as well as really sit down and see what it is that is causing your chaos and anxieties. Is it an overbooked calendar, is it pity or unforgiveness or bitterness? What is the root of it for you?
I pray this encourages you and gives you the hope to go on and live in Peace with Jesus, be blessed!
