Peace


Isaiah 26:3 (NASB) “The steadfast of mind you will keep in perfect peace, Because he trusts in You.”
—but those who are not steadfast in mind do not allow God to keep them in perfect peace because they are not focused continually on Him. God can not keep us peaceful if we fail to trust Him and frantically scan the chaos around us instead.
If, however, you can stay focused on God (and I am sure that this is possible only by His grace) you can rejoice in the midst of horror, as the people in Isaiah 24:14, because of God’s majesty. And you can remain in peace because “...in God the Lord we have an everlasting rock.” (Isaiah 26:4)
