Do not be anxious about anything

Do not be anxious about 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 Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 Father in heaven, thank your for the privilege we have to come to you with all of our burdens, fears, anxieties and prayer request, we often bear needless pain and forfeit the amazing peace that you can offer, if we only bring them to your throne of grace. I now bring them all to you, O God, I ask that you take them away and guard my heart and mind with your amazing peace, which transcends all human understanding. Remind me that you have not given me the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
