Often, my idea of perfect peace is calm waters…free of waves…easy. God’s perfect peace is better. In HIS perfect peace we find confidence to trust Him more. It is a place where our mind is on HIM and not our fleeting agenda. It is place where we find not only rest, but strength as we come to experience His love and faithfulness.
Without dark, we cannot understand light. Without unrest, we cannot know peace.
” You keep him in perfect peace
whose mind is stayed on you,
because he trusts in you.
Trust in the Lord forever,
for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.” -Isaiah 26:3,4
Perfect Peace by Laura Story
Stay close by My side
Keep your eyes on Me
Though this life is hard
I will give you perfect peace
In this time of trial
Pain that no one sees
Trust me when I say
That I will give you perfect peace
And you’ll never walk alone
And you’ll never be in need
Though I may not calm the storms around you
You can hide in Me
Burdens that you bear
Offer no relief
Let Me bear your load
‘Cause I will give you perfect peace
Stay close by My side
And you’ll never walk alone
Keep your eyes on Me
And you’ll never be in need
Though this life is hard
Know that I will always give you perfect peace
I will give you perfect peace
As you experience storms, know that with your mind on Him, you WILL find unexpected peace, that will grow your faith that the Lord is good.
Blessings,
❤️
