When Anxious Thoughts Tie You in Knots By: Anne Peterson Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:6-7 No matter what the beginning of our year was like, once the pandemic hit, nothing has been the same. We don't act the same, we don't feel the same and with partial coverings over our faces, we don't look the same. We're not certain about what will happen in the coming months and even in the coming weeks. So how do we face each day without worry and fear? What is the answer to our anxious thoughts? I don't want to give you a pat answer here. But I'm going to give you the only one I've found helpful. Prayer. And it's not even my idea, but it was from the Apostle Paul, who often was tempted to feel anxious. |
