Have you ever thought: I just need peace now—not tomorrow, not when life finally settles, but right here in the middle of the swirl?

That’s exactly what today’s short but mighty episode of Curious for Christ is about. I’m sharing a personal story of when I felt awkward, invisible, and tempted to hide—but instead of running, I stayed. And God met me in that uncomfortable space with His peace.

That moment inspired me to create The 5-Prayer Toolkit for Peace in Chaos—simple prayers you can use on the spot to steady your heart and become aware of God’s presence right away.

5 Prayers for Peace in the Middle of Chaos:

1. Pray for a heart anchored in God, not outcomes.

“Lord, help me want You more than I want a certain life. Anchor my heart in You so my peace isn’t tied to what I have or don’t have.”

“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” —Isaiah 26:3

2. Pray to welcome the unknown as a place to grow.

“Father, teach me to see the unknown not as a threat, but as a place where You and I walk closely together. Train my eyes to look for Your hand in the unfamiliar.”

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” —Proverbs 3:5–6

3. Pray for courage to stay in the uncomfortable until you see His work.

“Holy Spirit, give me the courage to stay in rooms that stretch me. Help me see opportunities to connect, bless, and grow instead of looking for the fastest escape.”

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” —Joshua 1:9

4. Pray to guard against spiritual complacency when blessings come.

“God, when You do give me the desires of my heart, don’t let my heart wander from You. Teach me to steward blessings in a way that keeps me close to You.”

“Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God… Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down… then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God.” —Deuteronomy 8:11–14

5. Pray to be faithful in small, unseen steps.

“Lord, help me be faithful today—in the ordinary, the awkward, and the overlooked—because I know that’s where You build my character and prepare me for more.”

“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.” —Luke 16:10

Closing Encouragement

Friend, peace doesn’t just arrive when everything falls into place. The truth is, there will always be new levels of growth, and faith will always be required to walk this journey. Instead of running, let’s choose to stay, trust, and invite God in.

Remember: God’s presence isn’t waiting at the finish line—He’s here with you now.

“The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.” —Psalm 29:11

If life feels overwhelming, if you’re exhausted and wondering why peace seems out of reach—this episode is for you.

In today’s heartfelt and hope-filled conversation, I share three powerful, biblical truths about peace that will meet you right where you are. Whether you’re parenting through hard seasons, facing emotional or spiritual fatigue, or simply longing for rest in the middle of chaos, you’ll find encouragement and clarity here.

Through Scripture, personal story, and reflection, this episode invites you to stop chasing peace like a destination—and start receiving it as a person: Jesus.

In this episode, we explore:

1. Peace is a Person, Not a Place You Reach

John 14:27

Why lasting peace can’t be manufactured—and how Jesus offers it as a gift, not a reward.

2. You Don’t Have to Be Perfect to Be at Peace—with God or Within

Romans 5:1

What it means to have peace with God through Christ, and how that changes everything from the inside out.

3. Peace Grows in the Middle of Real Life—Not by Escaping It

Isaiah 26:3

Why peace doesn’t come from fixing everything around you, but from fixing your eyes on God.

You’ll hear:

• A vulnerable story from me about parenting, failure, and grace
• Encouragement for the weary woman who feels like peace is only for people who “have it together”
