⁶ Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. ⁷ And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NRSV)

I have written extensively on Phil 4:6-7 as it is the verse that I keep coming back to in my life. I need reminding that there is something more productive to do than worry….prayer. And I need to be reminded that God’s promise is to replace anxiety with something eternal…peace.

While we may not fully understand how this holy mystery takes place that does not lessen its reality or impact. Memorize this verse and it will be tucked away for God to use in your times of need.
