Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by
prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to
God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts
and your minds in Jesus Christ. Phil 4:6-7 (ESV)
Do we as humans have times
of anxiety? Yes, we do simply because we are human. Certain issues of life can
cause us to worry, just for a little while.
We finally realize that we need to pray about that upsetting circumstance. We permit ourselves to open our hearts and tell God about the issue. We lay that burden at His feet. We ask Him to guide us through to the point of resolution. We ask Him for His will.
Next, God takes over and brings us peace. I, myself, have had times when, after I have prayed, the issue no longer seems as huge as it was. Sometimes, the circumstance actually becomes manageable or God takes it from my heart. Then, I have peace that guards my soul.
My prayer for all my local friends and online ones is that they can find peace about whatever plagues them.
