 Peace in Prayer

“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.”

Colossians 4:2

 

There are many people whose lives are ruined by anxiety, worry and fear.  Paul says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, 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).

 

Especially in times of adversity, there is absolutely nothing than you can do in your own strength to solve your problem.  Jesus said that without Him we can do nothing, but take heart because He also said that in God, all things are possible.

“How wonderful, Lord, that I may come to You when I am sad and when I repent of my sins.  Thank You for hearing my prayers.  Amen
