00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.320
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation,

2
00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:09.280
by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God.

3
00:00:09.840 --> 00:00:13.840
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,

4
00:00:13.840 --> 00:00:17.040
will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

5
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:22.960
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right,

6
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:27.440
whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable,

7
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:31.600
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things.

8
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.680
Philippians 4, 6-8, NIV

9
00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:42.560
It's amazing to think about the peace available to us when we choose not to be anxious about

10
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:48.160
anything. God invites us to bring him all our worries, fears, and anxieties.

11
00:00:48.720 --> 00:00:53.600
When we do, we find that his peace, which surpasses all understanding,

12
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:59.520
guards our hearts and minds. He cares for us deeply and wants us to experience his peace

13
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:05.600
and comfort. God's love and care are constant and unwavering. No matter what we face,

14
00:01:05.600 --> 00:01:09.360
we can trust that he is with us, guiding us and providing for us.

15
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:14.480
When we choose not to be anxious and instead bring our concerns to him,

16
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:17.760
we are reminded that we are not alone and that he is in control,

17
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:21.040
giving us the confidence to face our challenges.

18
00:01:21.600 --> 00:01:25.520
So take a moment today to reflect on your worries and anxieties,

19
00:01:25.520 --> 00:01:29.200
bring them to God and allow his peace to fill your heart and mind.

20
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:33.840
Trust that he is taking care of you and that his love,

21
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:39.520
which is more than enough to sustain you, is a constant reminder of how cherished you are.
