Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phili 4:6-7
Sometimes
fear grips us, fear of the unknown. Waiting for test results, wondering
if someone is going to pull through a sickness, wondering if someone is
going to come home safe, worrying if you’re going to get that job,
worrying how you’re going to provide for your family, how you’re going
to keep above the water with bills weighing you down. You sit down and
try to figure out everything, calculate your bills over and over and
you’re still coming up short. You are not suppose to take care of
yourself alone! It was such a release for me when I learned how much God
cared for me, while I was a sinner. I don’t mean after I was “good” or
after I did something “good” I mean before I became a committed
Christian. He cared for me, protected me and provided for me.
