Philippians 4: 6-7
6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Do not be anxious about anything? Wow. That verse crushed me today. How obvious are those 2 verses yet how easily I forget. I want that peace of God that transcends all understanding.
Here is a little story about a 4 year old.
A 4 year old asked her mother to make a birthday card for her so that she can give it to someone special. So the mother made a beautiful hand made birthday card for her daughter. Her duaghter gave the card later to her mother on her birthday and wrote "love you". The mother did 99.9% of the work. But the mother I am sure was touched. This is a small picture of how we serve God. We petition to the Father our request and He does 99.9999999% of the work and we thank Him for it.
