Today's message from Sarah Young & her "Jesus Calling:  Enjoying Peace in His Presence", popular book or daily flip calendar. A message for each day; this is today's. (I have a ways to go!):

"I am training you in steadiness.

Too many things interrupt your awareness of Me.

I know that you live in a world of sight and sound,

but you must not be a slave to those stimuli.

Awareness of Me can continue in all circumstances,

no matter what happens.

This is steadiness I declare for you.

Don't let unexpected events throw you off course.

Rather, respond calmly and confidently,

remembering that I am with you.

As soon as something grabs your attention,

talk with Me about it.

Thus I share your joys and your problems,

I help you cope with whatever is before you.

This is how I live in you and work through you.

This is the way to Peace.

Bible verses included: 1) "He does not fear bad news, nor live in dread of what may happen. For he is settled in his mind that God will take care of him. - Psalm 112:7; 2) "Fear not, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed. I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will help you: I will uphold you with my victorious right hand. - Isaiah 41:10.
