Verse of the Day

A verse from an earlier day, with its reflection and prayer.

Peace instead of anxiety

“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Today's insight

When you are told to "Be careful for nothing," Scripture invites you to hand over every burden that weighs on you. Instead of carrying worry, you can bring "every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving" directly to God. In return, He promises "the peace of God, which passeth all understanding," guarding both your heart and your mind through Christ Jesus.

Reflect

What specific worry are you holding today that you can turn into a prayer with thanksgiving instead?

Prayer

Lord, I bring You the cares that trouble my thoughts and weigh down my spirit today. Please replace my anxiety with Your peace that surpasses all human understanding. Guard my heart and mind through Christ Jesus as I place my trust completely in You. Amen.
