An old, familiar verse came to mind this morning…
"You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You."
Isaiah 26:3
I am remembering that the same Hebrew word, shalom, is used twice here in the original text for perfect and peace. The Lord is making a point.
Shalom, shalom! Perfect peace! Peace, peace! A double-portion of His peace.
Shalom (Hebrew): Completeness, wholeness, peace, health, welfare, safety, soundness, tranquility, prosperity, perfectness, fullness, rest, and harmony.
Do you need one shalom in your life right now, or two? Choose to trust Him completely and strengthen your faith by setting your mind upon who He is and the promises of His Word. A double-scoop of His incomprehensible shalom will be yours.
Feel free to share...
