"Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus."
Are you worried about anything at this moment? Here's Paul's antidote and prescription for peace: pray! And how do you pray? First, tell God what you need. Tell him everything you need ("pray about everything"). Don't try to sort through what's "important enough to bother God about." If it bothers you, pray about it. Besides telling God what you need, thank him for all he's already done. Keep track! When you remind yourself of God's past faithfulness, it's easier to trust him for present needs. This leads to great peace, and this is the kind of life God wants for us
