Isaiah 26:3-4
"You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in You. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock."

I don't think my friend knew how badly I needed to hear this verse when she shared it with me years ago. I was in a new place, feeling very much alone, battling anxiety, and very discouraged. There were times during that season of my life that I would find myself almost chanting this verse. And I learned then that He is absolutely an Everlasting Rock!!
I love this passage because it doesn't matter where we are in life, it applies. If it doesn't today it probably will tomorrow. I want my mind, no matter what I'm doing, to be fixed on Him, because it's only then that I experience His true peace...."peace that passes understanding". And trust me, in my crazy life, I can always use peace.:0)
Love you ladies!!!

Awesome verse! We just had that in our Lord Bible study in the chapter The Lord is Peace, Jehovah-shalom. Peace no matter what is going in your circumstances.... now that's a promise!! :-)
