There’s a wise and ancient recipe:
Desire nothing
and you shall have peace
Wise, yes
But incomplete
Here’s how to complete it:
Desire nothing but God
and you shall have perfect peace
θ
Tomorrow, Monday morning at 8:00 a.m., I’m having a major heart procedure. The odds of success are excellent–but not perfect. When I surrender my desire for a perfect outcome, I feel a certain degree of peace. But when I trust the outcome to God, I have perfect peace.
Upholding you in prayer, Mitch!
Thank you–and likewise–dear Joy!
🙏🏼
That’s so true ! 😇
Simple; but that’s the point. That’s the way of Jesus; He spoke is simple terms, lived that way and taught that way. Love your message. May you walk in God’s path.
Thank you, Russell.
In my prayers for you Mitch!
Ride with Jesus partner! 🙏🏼🤠
Bless you, forever-brother!

Sometimes in this life that He Himself took on, anticipation is one of those, “God, I can’t shake this anxiety” things. Then, we remember. And trust. Then, we get scared again, and then… (and that’s me — I hope YOU are doing fine!). 🙏🙏🙏
I am, and thank you, Carol.
Perfect peace, that’s beautiful. It’s pretty amazing what normal people can do when they work together. God will be there too so it’s a great team!
Bless you, Martha.
“When I surrender my desire for a perfect outcome, I feel a certain degree of peace. But when I trust the outcome to God, I have perfect peace.” God’s got you. I will be praying for you, Mitch! My cousin just got a heart offer today and he will surgery later tonight. It has been a long time coming, but we have been steadfast in our prayers and trusting in God.
Hang in there! 🙏🏽💙
Thanks, dear friend, and my prayers for your cousin!

Please add me to the list of your brothers and sisters in Christ who are praying. Earlier this week I jotted this encouragement on a sticky note: “Following Jesus doesn’t spare us from pain—but it means we never face it alone.” ~ Gracie Hunt
So true, and thank you, Cindie.
