Be anxious for nothing


Philippians 4: 6 – 7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, 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.
 
The possible causes for fear and anxiety are many.
It could be conflict—health issues—spiritual issues—false beliefs.
 
It is wrong to become paralyzed by excessive worry—which in turn, is sin.
Sometimes, anxiety is the result of sin in one’s life.
The solution? Repent—confess the sin and seek God’s forgiveness and set things right.
 
Did you know that most people worry, about events that never take place?
Wouldn’t you agree, that worry and anxiety are time wasters?
 
I wonder….When worry and fret and fear enter in, do you take God at His Word?
That might be the issue, right there.
 
Maybe these verses of scripture, will bring about God’s reminder of His peace and heartwarming presence?
