" You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast , because they trust in you. Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD Himself, is the Rock Eternal. " NIV
In today's time, peace of mind is a fleeting experience. There is just a lot of things to do, a lot of things that needed the mind's attention. The big chunk of that restless thoughts are connected to our own needs and wants. That part in our minds that 'wanted' the comfort and the convenience now. But, thinking about it really creates more internal chaos than peace. So, instead of comfort and convenience, let us pray for God's peace to be upon us.
Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)
Do not be anxious about anything, but, in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Father, thank You for You never fail to remind us of Your truths. Forgive us for the wrongs we have done against You and anyone we have wronged. You are holy and pure and no impure thing can stand against Your presence, but, You already considered us who have Christ Jesus as righteous before You. We come before You with confidence that it is Jesus You see in us. Help us by Your Holy Spirit to correct our thoughts and so our words and actions will follow. We badly need Your help each and every single second of our lives. Help us live according to Your Word and anticipate all the good things You have planned for (each and everyone of) us with a peaceful heart and restful mind. We love You Lord, but, You love us more. Help us Father. In Jesus Name. Amen.
