December · Day 363 of 365
Rest in His Presence
Peace & His Presence
Scripture
“Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”
— Isaiah 7:14 (KJV)
Reflection
The peace of God guards the heart. Isaiah 7:14 promises, "Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear…" It is a sentinel that stands watch when our own thinking would betray us. Today, let the peace of God guard your heart. Refuse to let anxious thoughts have the last word. Replace them with truth, with prayer, with thanksgiving.
Prayer
Prince of Peace, settle Your peace deep in my heart today. Where I am anxious, calm me. Where I am restless, still me. Amen.
Thought for the Day
How might I slow down enough to notice God today?
