The Battle For Your Peace

In this episode of VERSED, host John Lawhon helps us reflect on how we can live a more peaceful life. In our human nature, we are combative, polarized people. We battle over everything. Deep down we are fighters. Why? Because most people don’t live at peace with themselves. It makes sense why it is so difficult to live peacefully with others. We are in an endless wrestling match with insecurity, a lack of confidence, a struggle with a purpose and place in life, and the pursuit of freedom from worry and anxiety. It is rare to see people live a life that is calm, deliberate, free from anxiety.
Today’s passage in Isaiah shows us how to have peace in spite of all that.
“You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Trust in the Lord always, for the Lord God is the eternal Rock.”
Isaiah 24:3-4
