Each day begins with an influx of thoughts. Like many of us, we wake up in the morning, our minds racing with things that need to get done. These thoughts often come with added stress and worry, which is not a good way to begin the day. Stress and worry will create an uphill battle for your entire day, were simple tasks start to become more challenging.

What would our day look like if we submitted to God each morning, before even allowing stress and worry to invade our minds? If we begin each day with prayer, supplication, and thanksgiving, the fruit of these actions will produce peace in our minds and hearts. Can you imagine the positive effects this will have on your whole being? Imagine it, a sense of peace that will bring soundness to our physical, mental and spiritual health. This is peace that only God can give. An amazing peace that will guard us from anything that seeks to plant anxiety, stress, and worry.

Let us rise up! Submit to God all of your worries, and watch the peace that will completely overtake you, the peace of God.

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”- Philippians 4:6
