Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
The phrase “be careful for nothing” literally means “Don’t worry about anything!”
Worry will strangle you physically and spiritually. It will choke the life right out of you.
Keep praying. Be thankful for your many blessings.
You have a Friend Who wants to help you.
What A Friend We Have In Jesus
______________________________
What a friend we have in Jesus, — All our sins and griefs to bear! — What a privilege to carry — Everything to God in prayer! — Oh, what peace we often forfeit, — Oh, what needless pain we bear, — All because we do not carry — Everything to God in prayer!
Have we trials and temptations? — Is there trouble anywhere? — We should never be discouraged — Take it to the Lord in prayer. — Can we find a friend so faithful,Who will all our sorrows share? — Jesus knows our every weakness; — Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy-laden, — Cumbered with a load of care? — Precious Savior, still our refuge — Take it to the Lord in prayer. — Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? — Take it to the Lord in prayer! — In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, — Thou wilt find a solace there.
Joseph M. Scriven 1855
