Prayer

"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything through prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4-6,7

Wow. That's it. Are you afraid? Anxious about something? Thankfully the bible has laid it out very clear what we are to do. Simply tell God what's up and he will give you peace. It doesn't get much better than that. 

I was thinking of this verse today. I met a family whose oldest daughter was recently abducted by a group of sex traders. By the grace of God she was able to get away. She is now living in fear and doesn't want to leave her house. The scary thing is that there really isn't much that can be done. The police here can't always be trusted. 

And this is where you come in. This girl needs prayer. She needs that peace that surpasses all understanding. As scary as it must be to almost be put into the sex trade, there is something awesome about God being the only one who can help. He loves us so much and wants our complete faith and reliance on him. 

Pray for peace for the girl today.
