🌿 Daily Devotional – Sheltered in the Arms of Jesus. The Peace That Comes from His Embrace

The Peace That Comes from His Embrace

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

There is a peace that the world cannot give and cannot take away — the peace found only in the arms of Jesus. When life’s storms rage and the waves of worry rise high, His arms are our refuge, His presence our calm.

To be sheltered in His arms means resting in complete trust, knowing that no matter how fierce the battle, He holds us close. The same hands that calmed the sea now cradle our hearts. The same voice that spoke life into creation whispers, “Peace, be still,” to the turmoil within us.

When we are weary, He says, “Come unto me.” When fear tries to take hold, His perfect love drives it out. In the arms of Jesus, we don’t have to have all the answers — we just have to have faith.

Meditation:Take a deep breath and imagine yourself resting in His embrace. Let go of what burdens you. Surrender your worries to Him and allow His peace to quiet your mind and renew your spirit.

Prayer:Lord Jesus, thank You for being my refuge and strength. When the storms of life surround me, remind me that I am safe in Your arms. Fill me with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Let me rest in the assurance that nothing can separate me from Your love. In Your precious name, Amen. 💜
