Peace in the Middle, Purpose in the Waiting

Good morning, dear friends!

We’ve made it to Wednesday—the heart of the week.For many, it’s the point where tiredness creeps in and to-do lists still feel too long. But here’s the beautiful truth: God meets us in the middle.In the middle of the storm.In the middle of the uncertainty.In the middle of the ordinary.

Today is not just a filler day. It is a day of divine assignment, hidden blessings, and heaven-sent peace. Let’s choose to be still and know that God is right here with us.

✝️ Verse of the Day

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”— Isaiah 26:3 (KJV)

Perfect peace. Not partial, not temporary—perfect.And it doesn’t come from understanding or accomplishment.It comes from keeping our mind fixed on Him.

Are you seeking peace today?Let your thoughts turn to Jesus.Let your trust be your anchor.

📜 On This Day in History – July 23

• 1904 – The ice cream cone made its debut at the World's Fair. A sweet reminder that even unexpected things can bring joy. Keep your eyes open—God may surprise you today!

• 1995 – Comet Hale-Bopp was discovered. A reminder that God’s creation declares His glory—even far beyond what our eyes can see.

💛 Wednesday Word: Stay Focused on Him

Distractions abound. Worries whisper. But peace is found in focus.

When your mind stays on Jesus,your heart won’t stray into fear.And your spirit will rest in stillness.

Midweek might feel messy, but grace is right in the middle of it.

🙏 Midweek Prayer:

Lord, today I fix my eyes on You. Keep me in Your peace as I trust You through this day. Quiet the noise, calm my heart, and remind me of Your presence in every task and every breath. Thank You for being my anchor, my strength, and my peace. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

🌟 Today’s Challenge:

Encourage someone who’s in “the middle.”Whether it’s the middle of a trial, a project, or a waiting season—remind them God hasn’t forgotten them. The middle is still holy ground.

You don’t have to wait until the end of the week to feel peace.It’s available right now. Right here.In the middle of this Wednesday.

With peace and purpose,Sarah M. SkaggsAgape Love Ministry 🌼"Stayed on Him. Settled in peace. Strong in grace."
