Focus Scripture (Philippians 4:6-7, KJV): “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 Reflection: Prayer

Paul invites believers to respond to anxiety with prayer and thanksgiving. Prayer is not a guarantee that circumstances change immediately, but it turns our attention toward God’s care. We can ask for help and also seek practical support.

Reflect

What concern can you turn into a specific prayer?

Put It Into Practice

Write one request and one reason for gratitude.

Prayer

Father, receive my concerns and guard my heart with your peace. Amen.
