Don't Worry

Phil. 4:6-7.  "Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus."  Have you ever felt so stressed out that you worry yourself out of sleep? I believe many of us have.  Paul writes these verses from a Prison, and if you read the whole letter to the Philippians there is not a bit of worry in his writings. He brings encouragement to the readers through all his circumstances. The truth is, Paul  experienced God's peace in a prison cell. Through all this he writes "Don't worry about anything,instead, Pray about everything."This man had a relationship with the Lord, and nothing was about to change his mind or heart. He gives us all the right ingredients to over come stress, worry, and strain. "PRAY" and give God thanks, and in return His peace will guard your heart and mind. Stand up shake off any anxiety, and let your prayer be known to God.
