Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
لا
تهتموا بشيء بل في كل شيء بالصلاة والدعاء مع الشكر لتعلم طلباتكم لدى الله.
وسلام
الله الذي يفوق كل عقل يحفظ قلوبكم وافكاركم في المسيح يسوع
Philippians 4:6-7
Anxiety distracts the mind from communion with God. ‘Our
anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow…but empties today of its
strength’ (Charles Spurgeon)
The word nothing means it excludes any reason. No
reason is exempt and we are not allowed to worry about anything. This means
that we are to pray about everything. Through thankful prayer we can declare to
God our anxious thoughts and have faith that He will fill our hearts and mind
with His peace when we leave our anxieties at The Cross.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba
Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings. Lord, You know exactly where I
am emotionally and mentally and I know as per Jesus’ promise You will comfort
me. Help me to practice growing still before You Lord. I dwell on Your goodness
knowing You never fail me. Father God, I believe that sometimes You do allow the
pressures of life to build so that I can learn how to deal with them from a
position of faith and not fear. Thank You for not condemning me for my
feelings, and for providing wisdom for all I face. Strengthen me so as not to
feel anxious and to be always thankful so that Your peace which surpasses all
comprehension, will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. To Jesus be
the power, the glory, the majesty, the blessings, and the dominion before
all time and now and forevermore. Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
