Proverbs 16:3 -Commit whatever you do to the Lord, And your thoughts will be established.,, Committing everything to the Lord means everything, not just our ministry, Bible reading, praying or church going. God wants all of us which means committing our relationships (friends, romance, church, work, etc), health, leisure, money, possessions, work, intellect, even our eating and sleeping. In other words, every second of every day. If we do this, our thoughts and plans will go right along with God's.

Peace can be yours if you put all your trust and faith in the Father.
