Thoughts That Calm
"You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You."Isaiah 26:3
Reflection
Peace has a lot to do with where the mind sits. Thoughts stuck on the problem bring fear; thoughts fixed on God bring calm.
Prayer
Lord, steady my mind on You today. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
