Scripture Reading
Isaiah 26:3
You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.
Reflection
Perfect peace — shalom — is not the absence of trouble but the presence of God in the midst of it. The mind that is steadfast, fixed on God rather than on the churning circumstances around it, becomes a harbor rather than a vessel tossed by every wave. Trust is the discipline that anchors the mind. When worry pulls you outward today, practice the deliberate returning of your gaze to the One who holds all things.
Prayer for Today
We pray Lord that the strength of the birthday celebrant is renewed from day to day. That he/she does not fall sick of any sort in Jesus name, Amen.
Amen.
