My Source of Peace

Isaiah 26:3-4 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.  Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength

JEHOVAH: the eternal, self-existant, unchanging God

So lately I've been quite concerned...ok, worried...about several issues.  The other night I went to God's Word and found this scripture passage.  In short, A God-thing! 

I think about God all the time, but sometimes my trust level is a bit off (or shadowed).  I admit, I do have trust issues.  I'm embarrassed to admit that, but it's nevertheless true.  I have to constantly remind myself that though a lot of circumstance (and people) have let me down in life, God is never changing...He's trustworthy...He's always going to "be there" for me. 

I'm so thankful I read God's Word.  When I read this passage I thought, "so...it's not about me thinking of Him, but it is all about my trusting in Him".  The Bible--it is my source...my weights, so to speak...the source which builds not only my character, but my spiritual strength.  His Word enlightens my darkness.  His Word lifts my spirts. 

COMPLETE peace can only come into the lives of those that put there trust in the Lord. Truly He is everlasting strength to those who put their trust in Him.
