Inspirational Bible Verses About Peace
There's an interesting statement in Isaiah ch.26 v.3: "You will keep whoever's mind is steadfast in perfect peace, because he trusts in you." - it reveals an essential truth to bear in mind about peace of mind. We cannot force ourselves, think ourselves or even positively confess ourselves to a state of inner peace. On the contrary, our responsibility is not focused on achieving inner-peace for ourselves.
Instead, our responsibility is to place our trust in the One who will keep us from fruitless introspecton. He will direct our hearts and, as a consequence - neither the end result, nor a by-product - lead us into a state of peace to guarantee His presence and approval.
Colossians ch.3 v.15 puts it this way: "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful." We have a purpose, a calling - and as we fulfill it through His direction - in unity, with thanksgiving - so also we learn to allow His peace to govern our decision-making.
