Peace Like A River

Isaiah 26:3 "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you."

Peace evades me. My mind is constantly turning. I can't concentrate. I'm agitated. Easily irritated. Not feeling much like doing anything. Chaos swirls around me like a tornado. Help me keep my focus on you. Not distracted by other things.

Evette,
I hope God has given you his peace throughout the week. You know to call if you need to talk....

You are describing every day life for me...I desire the peace of God..I was praying yesterday and I just said, Lord, why can't I lay all these things down? Why do I keep them around? Why can't I just literally lay them down? I don't get it....what is wrong with me that I would hang onto something that I hate and is bad for me????

Margaret,
I'm with you. I can't quit put my finger on it. Why do I keep picking up stuff that I've laid down long ago? I do what I detest!
