Dear God,

You have instructed us to not be anxious, worrisome, overly concerned for any thing...but instead to bring everything to You in prayer and thanksgiving. If I do this, You have promised me that Your peace, which passes all understanding, shall keep my heart and mind through Christ Jesus (Phillippians 4:6-7). I come to You now for myself and on behalf of my brothers and sisters in Christ, and for those who suffer so much due to anxiety and depression. I pray that You will fill us with Your peace; that You will touch our minds and remind us that we do not need to worry. You are our God and maker. You will handle it for us. Worrying does no good. May we lean unto You...talk with You...and spend time in Your word and before the throne of grace. May we fellowship with other Christians, those who will encourage us, even more so as the day approaches. Right now, this day, we give You our concerns and ask that You will work out all to our good and Your glory. Thank You Father, for loving us and carrying our burdens. Thank you Father, for providing our needs. Thank You Father, for Jesus Christ our Savior and the hope He has given. For it is in His name we pray, Amen!!!!!
