The unrest will always try to return. You know the feeling—the racing thoughts at night, the worries that surface in the quiet moments, the way peace can feel like it slips right through your hands. I’ve been there too. And yet, God never intended for us to live in constant unrest.
His Word reminds us: “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you” (Isaiah 26:3).
So how do we keep from sliding back into the chaos? By choosing—daily—to return to Him. Falling into God isn’t a one-time act; it’s a rhythm. Each day we bring ourselves back through prayer, stillness, or simply opening His Word. We guard our thought life, capturing fear before it takes root and speaking God’s truth louder than the lies. We stay connected to people of faith, because isolation only feeds unrest, but trusted voices remind us of God’s faithfulness when we forget. And above all, we hold fast to what never changes: God is good, God is with us, and God is enough.
Falling into Him is not weakness—it’s wisdom. It’s how the restless heart learns to breathe again. The more we fall, the more we discover that peace isn’t the absence of trouble—it’s the presence of God holding us steady in the middle of it.
