A Mind Kept in Peace

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

Peace here isn't a feeling that descends on you passively; it's connected directly to where your mind stays fixed. A mind that keeps circling back to the problem will keep finding anxiety there. A mind stayed on God — returned to Him deliberately, again and again through the day — finds Him keeping it in peace. This takes practice, not perfection. Every time your thoughts drift back to the worry today, gently redirect them toward Him, and trust that the peace will follow the direction of your gaze.

Prayer

Lord, keep my mind stayed on You today. When my thoughts drift to worry, draw them back to Your perfect peace. Amen.
