Spiritual Vitamin: Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)
Challenge: Oswald Chambers writes "We tend to use prayer as a last resort, but God wants it to be our first line of defense. We pray when there's nothing else we can do, but God wants us to pray before we do anything at all." Will you pray about those things that you are anxious about?
Prayer: Dear God, Thank you for your command to not be anxious about ANYTHING. It's truly amazing to me that you give a way of life that works! I don't have to be anxious! Your peace, which is hard to really understand, will guard my heart and mind in Christ. Help me to run to You first. Let prayer not be a last resort. I want to trust you with all those things that concern me today. Amen.
