Isaiah 26:3

There are so many great verses in Isaiah, which is why I decided to pull this week's verse from this beautiful book again!

Isaiah 26:3 ~ "You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You."

This simple verse just kind of hit me when I read it today. Oftentimes, I will go over something in my head again and again, letting it consume me and control my attitude or emotions. It's extremely humbling to think how often I don't trust God to work things out in my life. I try to do it all myself and have zero peace about it. When I give it to God, an act that should occur daily, not only does he give me peace about it, but he also works through the situation in a way that exceeds my expectations each and every time. When will it finally sink in that I can have perfect peace by keeping my mind steadfast and trusting in God? Easier said then done, I know, but I believe God honors those who set their feet on the path of steadfastness, despite the fact that stumbling will occur.
