Peace

Many of us get a time in our lives where we are anxious about something. Whether it is a big test coming up, or a speech, or maybe the championship game, we all get anxious about something. With that, we tend to worry or get angry or just get plain out confused. So over this past week, these verses have came up a lot and they fit the situation on which I'm writing on. Philippians 4:6-7 says, "Do not be anxious in 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 Jesus Christ." This verse is saying that when we get anxious about anything, we need to let God know and give the situation to Him. When we pray to God and thank Him for taking care of our anxious hearts, He gives us peace. With this he will guard your heart and mind from anxious thoughts. If you don't give God your anxious heart, then there is no way for Him to guard you and give you peace. And for me personally, I would like to have peace, than an anxious heart filled with worry, and hatred, and confusion. So what ever you are anxious about, just give it all to the Lord.
