With everything happening in the world today, it is so easy to find ourselves anxious. But my friend, as Christians we can find peace for our soul.
Let's look at Philippians 4:6-7 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
In the Greek it is saying that we are commanded to "Be anxious for not one thing". When we truly accept the idea that God is in control over every aspect of our lives and we know His sovereign hand is in every event and circumstance whether good or bad then we need not be anxious. We Can TRUST GOD in everything!
But notice the verse goes on to say "but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." My friend, we have a responsibility to Trust God and that means praying in every situation for God's protection, His guidance, and His will to be done.
The result - "and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
My friend, take comfort in these words. Our Lord is in control, trust Him for the details of life.
