Isaiah 26:3, 4
You will keep the mind that is dependent on you in perfect peace,
for it is trusting in you.
Trust in the LORD forever,
because in the LORD, the LORD himself,
is an everlasting rock! (CSB)

Advent’s anticipation of the coming of Jesus focuses on Peace this week. Peace is the condition of our souls when we have learned and leaned into the ever-present reality of God’s leading and surrounding presence. Peace is the presence of a mind settled on God’s goodness and provision. Peace is an overflow of God’s perfect love refreshing all it touches and fills.

Peace is possible when we learn to depend on God for all things and in all things. He is completely trustworthy. His faithful love never ends.

My coworker takes a monthly day away she calls a DAWG Day. DAWG is an acrostic meaning Day Alone With God. Try it. You will learn to love it. We should also practice DOG Days. DOG stands for Depend On God. The benefits of Depending On God day by day start with perfect peace but do not end there. Perfect Peace is the gateway through which we begin to experience ever more of God’s perfection and wonder.

Schedule a DAWG Day soon. Learn the practices and rhythms of making every day a DOG Day.

Perfect Peace will overflow your life and soothe the souls you encounter. You will be the best part of some people’s days. You will magnify the Lord our God for others to see in ways they have not yet perceived.

Trust God now and forever. He is our everlasting rock, our refuge, our hiding place, our source of everything we need and all we enjoy.

I will trust God now and forever and live with the perfect peace this provides.

Our Father, thank you that we can trust you at all times for all things. We can depend on you because you are forever trustworthy and true. Invade our lives with your peace. Empower us to live lives of perfect peace. Make us peace carriers in every conversation and situation. Amen.
