Scripture:
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”
– Philippians 4:4-7
Throughout these past couple of months, the Lord has been revealing himself to me in various ways, from providing for my college to calming my anxieties about this next year. I have held Philippians 4:4-7 close to my heart during this time of transition. These past weeks I have been surrounded by a whirlwind of emotions, but this verse has reminded me to keep my heart with God. It has helped me stay grounded in my belief that God is the ultimate provider, and I can give all my worries up to Him through prayer. It comforts me to know that He is with me through the hard times, listening to my prayers and guiding me toward His plan for me.
