    O God, today I begin an experiment in seeking peace. You have so much to say about peace in the Bible that I know it is your will for all men to be at peace.

    In knowing Your will, O God, I am encouraged to press through all opposition, so that your will might be fulfilled in me.

    Help me, I pray, to stop excusing my attitudes and actions. I alone am responsible for what I do today.

    Help me to forget the errors of yesterday while I live to the fullest today, to Your glory. Help me not to be anxious about tomorrow but to be assured that by living today within the will of God, tomorrow shall be even better than today.

    I do now commit myself to You Lord, trusting You for the needs of today. In Jesus' name.

    Dear Trusting Jesus Today,

    Wonderfully stated. I too commit myself today in the way you did. It is only with God's help and grace and power that we can do this. We are unable to do so on our own. That is why we come to Jesus first and then sanctification and determination to commit to God all of our ways comes because the Holy Spirit is now indwelling us and our ready help and creator of the new creation we now are in Jesus.

    Trusting Jesus Today:

    Those things you SEEK.

    Knowing the WILL of God answers what YOU SEEK.

    Matthew 6:10 Thy Kingdom come. Thy WILL BE DONE.

    Luke 17:21 ....Behold, the kingdom of God is WITHIN YOU.

    Colossians 1:27 ....this mystery ......Christ in you .....

    1 John 5:11 This is the record, that God hath GIVEN TO US ETERNAL LIFE, and THIS LIFE is his SON (the Holy Ghost).

    Philippians 2:13 For it is GOD (Christ in you, eternal LIFE) that WORKETH IN YOU (you are his body and he is the LIFE, not you, him) both TO WILL and TO DO his (the LIFE's) good pleasure.

    John 14:6 ....I am truth and life ....

    Christ himself, in the form of the Holy Ghost, THE SEED of God, is the Life in YOU, causing you HIS BODY to Do his good pleasure.

    1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God (truth and life) doth not commit sin, for HIS SEED remaineth in him (you, his body), and he (you, his body) cannot sin, because he (you, his body) is born of God.

    Matthew 6:10 Thy kingdom come (it's HERE, Christ in you), thy will be done.

    Peace has arrived.

    Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my spirit (Christ's LIFE) in you, and CAUSE you (my body) to walk in my statutes, and to keep my commandments and DO THEM.

    Hebrews 4:10 For he (the body of Christ) that has entered into MY REST (God's Kingdom, Christ's Life)) has CEASED from his OWN WORKS .....

    God Bless You.
