Trust and mental peace

It is Friday and the week has flown by. My mind is spinning from all the challenges of the week. For me, when the mind is going faster than I can keep up, it is an indication that I am trying to figure things out and not trusting the One who has all things under His command. It bugs me that after all this time as a Christ-follower, I am still grinding when I could/should be resting.

I am grateful that many years ago, several guys challenged me to memorize Scripture. One of the first verses I got from the Navigator’s Topical Memory System is Isaiah 26:3. It says “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” I so desperately need the Lord to help me trust the truth of this passage.

How much do I trust God? Still a lot of growing to do.
