perfect peace?

Isaiah 26:3
You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you (ESV).

Joy comes because of peace, but is not peace itself. Peace is the opposite of conflict. To make peace with God is to agree with Him, with His perfect will.  I can agree with Him when I trust Him & when I'm thinking of Him.  
"whose mind is stayed on You"-- when you're in love with someone you think about them constantly.  There are so many things I'm in love with, if that is the case. Moving God to the top of that list is necessary, I want to Love Him most.  When I love Him most, I'll also trust in Him, and when the two collide I enter perfect peace.
