Some days are hectic and busy, and I feel many things, but peaceful certainly isn't one of them. I have a tendency to think the circumstances in my life, should dictate the peace I feel. I've come to understand, that God cares for me so much, and everything that concerns me, or rattles my day. I can lay every un-nerving part of it at his feet. In releasing it into God's hands, it becomes His and no longer mine to carry. My focus then shifts, from all of the problems, to my God. The circumstances are still surrounding me, but so is His strength. My perspective of the mountain changes, when I realize, I am not climbing it by myself. My mind becomes fixed on God, and He takes me to the top of, what seemed, an un-crossable mountain, and showers me with His perfect peace all along the way.

I trust you Lord, to handle all the things that become too much for me, the mountains in my life, that seem too huge to be crossed. I place all my care into your hand, and together, I know we will make it up, across and over. Help me to keep my eyes fixed on you, and shower me with your perfect peace in every circumstance. Thank you for your great care for me. Amen.
