Php 4:6 Be
careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Php 4:7 And
the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.
Everything.
The entirety- all
the items, actions, or facts in a given situation. (Encarta)
In EVERYTHING- Pray.
In EVERYTHING- Supplicate.
In EVERYTHING- Thanksgiving.
In all actions-
pray, supplicate, and give thanks.
Truly if we cannot
pray, supplicate and give thanks in what we are doing- should we be doing it at
all? If we have requests they should be of God. If we have any concerns at all
about anything at all we should be seeking God over those concerns and when we
pray, when we appeal to God, we need to thank Him and KNOW that He has heard us
and will answer our requests with HIS wisdom- not ours.
If we do this, if we
truly keep these words and believe them- the PEACE of GOD- which passes ALL
understanding will keep our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
If we can honestly
learn to leave our concerns with God, if we can really truly trust in God,
giving Him our worries and we BELIEVE He will answer in HIS wisdom, then we
should have this peace we cannot comprehend. We thank Him because we know He's
in control. We understand that NONE of our worrying will alter a single
thing.
We need our hearts
kept.
We need our minds
kept.
We need the keeper
of our hearts and minds to be our Savior- Christ Jesus!
Please, Lord, teach
me to surrender to You in all things. Teach me to know Your peace with I will
not be able to understand. All through
YOUR grace and mercy, YOUR love, now and forever.
AMEN.
