🌾 Evening Meditation

Life rarely slows down. And when it ramps up—especially in chaotic seasons like summer transitions, parenting stress, or too many demands all at once—peace and clarity can feel out of reach.

Tonight, Keri Eichberger offers a personal, relatable reflection on what it looks like to chase peace amid the mess. When the calendar overflows, the kids need attention, work is unrelenting, and your mind feels scrambled, it’s easy to think peace can only be found in escape. But that’s not the whole story.

The beautiful truth is this: God meets us in the mess. He offers peace right where we are—not just on serene beaches or silent retreats, but in the living room chaos, the calendar notifications, and the dinner prep whirlwinds.

Psalm 48:14 reminds us that God is our guide forever. He hasn’t left us to fend for ourselves in the clutter. He’s just one breath, one pause, one whispered prayer away. Tonight is an invitation to breathe Him in, acknowledge His nearness, and clear the spiritual clutter by leaning into His peace.

🙏 Your Nightly Prayer

God of Peace,
Your ever-presence is an invaluable gift. A blessing I fail to acknowledge at times. Times when life feels out of control and overflowing with too much. Lord, help me to remember your peace is just a prayer away. Help me pause in the midst of the clutter and call on your constant calming comfort.
Thank you for being my God forever and ever and for guiding me even to the end.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.

🌙 Three Things to Meditate Upon

1. Mental Inventory
   Is your mind feeling cluttered and your heart overwhelmed? Write down what’s occupying your thoughts and surrender each item to God.

2. Peace in the Pause
   When was the last time you paused in your day to breathe and pray? Even just a 30-second pause can be holy space.

3. God’s Guiding Hand
   Reflect on a recent time God brought clarity or comfort in the midst of chaos. Thank Him for His faithful guidance.
