“Do not be anxious about anything, 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 your minds in Christ Jesus.’ Philippians 4:6-7 Many people that I have encountered seem to think that if they do not worry about the issues of their lives then they are being irresponsible. The truth of the matter is that we are told not to worry, but rather be prayerful and show adequate concern for the things in our lives. The apostle Paul talks about being content in whatever circumstance he is in,(Philippians 4:11) and if you are familiar with Paul’s life after coming to Christ then you know this was no easy matter for him. Through his faith and trust in the Lord Paul learned how to keep his heart at ease and his mind clear to see the solution that the Lord had for his problems. We live in a fast paced world with an enormous amount of problems and at times it seems that there is no solution in sight, however the Lord is faithful and cannot lie and He has told us to place our trust in Him, and regardless of what may happen He has everything under control. “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” John 14:27
