Philippines 4:4-7

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say, rejoice! The Lord is near.

Paul is in prison when he writes this letter to the Christians at Philippi in Macedonia. Paul urges the Christians to put aside all anxiety about the future, because "the Lord is at hand." He tells them to pray and to be grateful, and he assures them that "the peace of God, which passes all understanding," will keep their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Whatever our troubles are, can we put anxiety aside and be grateful? Can we open our hearts and minds to the peace that passes all understanding?

Grace and peace...Bob
