Peace can feel far away when you’re a mother raising little ones—your days are filled with spills, cries, endless questions, and the same messes you have to pick up multiple times a day. But in the middle of the chaos, God offers a peace that doesn’t depend on a quiet house or a perfect schedule.
Isaiah 26:3-4 “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock”
That means even while holding a baby on one hip and stirring dinner with the other hand while your toddler is hanging onto your leg, your heart can rest in the knowledge that God is with you. He’s sees you. His peace is like a deep breath for your soul, reminding you that you don’t have to do this alone, and that the same God who holds the universe also holds you—and your little ones—securely in His hands.
Just like when Peter walked to Jesus on the water. He locked at Him and trusted Him. While the storm raged and the waves crashed around him, he trusted Jesus to keep him safe. Having God’s peace feels like an unshakable calm, even when everything around you is noisy, uncertain, or falling apart. It’s the quiet confidence that you are held, known, and loved by the One who controls it all. It’s not the absence of trouble, but the presence of Jesus that makes your heart still, your mind clear, and your soul settled.
One of my favorite verses- John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives, do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”
He sees you, he knows you, He’s right there with you holding your hand. Trust Him, and He will give you peace.
