Isaiah 32
I often feel restless - my thoughts wander to chaos and worry. I know God does not want me, or any of His children to worry or feel restless. He wants us to have peace - that is why He sent His Son Jesus...so that we could have freedom from the sting of sin and death and the peace that is promised as a fruit of the Spirit.
My Prayer: Lord, You are so very good to me...providing rest in a chaotic world. Thank You Jesus! I am not worth such love. I worry too often when I should be at peace. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome and turn from my sin towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest. v18

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Galatians 5:22
But I have calmed and quieted myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content. Psalm 131:2
The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:6
