You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.
~Isaiah 26:3
As you work to renew your mind, stress will undoubtedly try to pull you away from your goals. The everyday problems often tempt us to make unhealthy choices out of convenience or as a temporary fix for stress.
It can be easy to get stressed out when we focus on our own limited resources instead of focusing on the unlimited resources of God. When we choose to focus on God, God provides perfect peace. We can fix our thoughts on God by meditating on things we know about him or on promises from scripture. For example, he is faithful, he is all-powerful and wise. "Your love Lord, reaches to the heavens. Your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep" (Psalm 36:5-6
Filling our minds with these truths from scripture will bring peace to our hearts. And peace of mind is the key to beating stress.

God's peace is more than enough to lift you above your stress and reset your mind.
