Philippians
4:6
"Do not be
anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with
thanksgiving, present your requests to God." NIV
"Be careful
for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let
your requests be made known unto God." KJV
How many times
have we found ourselves minutes, hours, or even days into worrying about a
matter before we realize we have been wasting precious energy on anxiety? At the
moment an anxious thought, or troubling situation arises, we can go directly to
the throne of grace and let our God know about it. He will comfort us and give
us peace, so we will know He is taking care of it for us. After all, He is in
control of all things, and nothing is impossible for Him.
Heavenly Father,
forgive us for worrying and fretting over things. Help us to come instantly to
You when we become anxious about a matter. Increase our faith as we seek You to
take care of those things that bother us and keep us upset. We praise You for
Your peace and comfort You lavishly pour out on us when we come to You. In
Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
