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 NIV

By nature I am a worrywart. Things can play on my mind for hours and keep me from sleeping. One evening when my son was travelling through the night to come and see me, I was particularly troubled. I prayed for his safety but I still couldn’t sleep. Claiming this promise the terrible fear in the pit of my stomach vanished and I fell into a restful sleep. God cares about everything that troubles us. Give those things that make you anxious to him and he will give you his peace in return.
