You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You. – (Isaiah 26:3)
Though strife and struggle are inevitable in this life, the perfect peace of Christ, is not. When we are devoted to Him in all of our ways, we remain steady, even in the raging storms. That does not mean that we are not aware of the wind and waves surrounding us, but rather in spite of the storm, we know our Source of safety, and we find peace in the midst of storms, as we fix our eyes on He alone who is far greater than anything that comes against us. May we keep our mind steadfast on Christ, and ever trust in the mighty power and unchanging love of our great God.
There is perfect peace,
in the midst of storms;
when we cling to Christ,
our outlook transforms.
We need not look at,
the wind and the waves;
but rather at Him,
Who makes our heart brave.
Not by our own strength,
but in His alone;
peace covers our hearts,
as truth is made known.
His mighty power,
and unchanging love;
can silence our storms,
grant peace from above.
So trust in the Lord,
be steadfast in mind;
no matter what comes,
His peace we will find.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You grant us Your perfect peace, even in the midst of raging storms, when we fix our minds and hearts on You in trust. Thank You that Your Spirit in us grants us the strength that we need to hold onto what is true. Forgive us for our fearfulness at all that is seen, and help us to truly trust You with all that You are doing in the unseen. Thank You that You are always moving on our behalf, even when we are unaware. Help us to be steadfast in our faith, and love others as You so lavishly love us. May many come to know Your mighty power and unchanging love personally, and enter into a lasting relationship with You. Be exalted, O God, as we seek to stay steadfast in trust. Amen.
