Whether we are believers or non-believers, whether we believe the Holy Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God or just a Good Book, one thing that I think should be universally accepted is the fact that the Holy Bible contains some of the best advice for daily living which can be found anywhere.  Although this book is not required reading in any university degree program of psychology or psychiatry that I am aware of in America, it is my firm belief that it really SHOULD BE. 

Many people all over the world suffer from anxiety.  What follows today is some excellent advice for all of us.  It comes from a simple verse of Scripture which may be found in the New Testament.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  ~ Philippians 4:6

We’re very familiar with anxiety, but how familiar are we with peace? Just when we get comfortable with one season of our lives we are thrust into the next, where we find our bearings have to change.

Prayer guides us into the seasons of life that we don’t understand because God’s peace transcends all understanding. To approach anxiety with thanksgiving and prayer may seem hard, but it reminds us that we were never in control to begin with. We have a Heavenly Father who sees all things and cares for us. Prayer pulls down our anxieties and fills us with supernatural peace.
