Be anxious for nothing

Anxious thoughts. Skirting the edges. Almost incognito. 

Fears. Simmering just below the surface.

Concerns for loved ones and various situations. Rippling through as world crises ramp up. 

Then, His Word. Memorized long ago. Invades with precision. Cutting through the muddle.

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God” (Philippians 4:6 NASB).

Skipping Truth

“I didn’t think God should say that.” I remember the look on her face. The raw honesty of her words. Skipping truth because it entered a place of brokenness in her life.

The memory floods in as I ponder the importance of handling the Word of God rightly. With integrity. In study and proclamation.

Studying passages in context. In the whole counsel of Scripture. And together with other believers.
