Fear Is Real. But So Is God’s Peace.

Fear Is Real. But So Is God’s Peace.

Why is anxiety so pesky and unpredictable? In my life, fear tends to creep in and stay too long. If you are feeling any degree of fear, panic, or worry, you’re not alone. And God wants to tend to your anxious heart. 

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything…
present your requests to God and the peace of God which passes all understanding,
will guard your hearts and minds…”
Philippians 4:6-7

Worry is real. You know it. And so does God. That’s why He makes Himself available to every anxious heart. He invites us to bring our worry to Him. We don’t have to feel shame. We simply get to be honest with God and give Him our worries.

We get to exchange our fear for peace when we pray. 

The God of all understanding has compassion and peace for you today. When you place your worries in His hand, fears diminish. God’s peace doesn’t come when you understand your situation. Peace comes when you trust Him with your worry. 

Talk to God about your worry. Release the fear. And embrace His peace. It will serve as a shield to your mind and heart. – Sandi
