You will keep the peace, a perfect peace, for all who trust in You,
for those who dedicate their hearts and minds to You. Isaiah 26:3 VOICE
It’s difficult to remain peaceful when everything around us is is like a roller coaster. But it gets a lot easier when we take our minds off of all that’s going on around us and keep our minds on Jesus. We find that our bodies respond to us resting in His presence. We relax, our blood pressure decreases, our major organs function more optimally and our minds become calm.
Jesus told us that where our treasure is, there our heart is also. When Jesus becomes our all in all, our “go to” no matter what, we realize He has our heart too. It’s no more striving, trying and doing to please Him and instead developing a close joyful relaitonship with Him. An honest one, where there is absolutely nothing that we can’t share with Him. What peace we find when we can be totally honest with Him and know we are still loved and accepted. And on top of that we accept what Holy Spirit is trying to teach us to become more like Him. Now that is what life is all about, trusing and resting in Jesus and not forgetting all the benefits we have through accepting Him.
