“Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”
These words that St. Paul offers to the Philippians are needed more than ever in our present day lives. We know that there are many things that cause us anxiety, fear, doubt, and confusion. St. Paul simply tells us to trust God and place all those things in His hands. God holds what we offer to Him ~ all our fears, concerns, and troubles ~ and then He patiently waits for us to let them go. Trust God today and let go of all those things that you bring to Him. St. Padre Pio reminds us: “Pray, hope, and don’t worry!”
Faithfully Yours in Christ,
Fr. Wayne
