whose thoughts are fixed on you!
~ Isaiah 26:3 ~
We can never avoid strife in the world around us, but when we fix our thoughts on God we can know perfect peace even in turmoil. As we focus our mind on God and His word, we become steady and stable. Supported by God's unchanging love and mighty power, we are not shaken by the surrounding chaos. Do you want peace? Keep your thoughts on God and your trust in Him.

Then you will experience God's peace,which exceeds anything we can understand.
His peace will guard your heart and mind
as you live in Christ Jesus.
~ Philippians 4:7 ~
God's peace is different from the world's peace. True peace is not found in positive thinking, in absence of conflict, or in good feelings. It comes from knowing that God is in control. Our citizenship in Christ's Kingdom is sure, our destiny is set, and we can have victory over sin. Let God's peace guard your heart against anxiety.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
~ John 14:27 ~
The end result of the Holy Spirit's work in our lives is deep and lasting peace. Unlike worldly peace, which is usually defined as the absence of conflict, this peace is confident assurance in any circumstance; with Christ's peace, we have no need to fear the present or the future. If your life is full of stress, allow the Holy Spirit to fill you with Christ's peace.
