A thought
Anxiety asks you to carry tomorrow before it arrives. Scripture offers a trade: hand the weight to God in prayer, and receive a peace that stands guard over your heart and mind.
A prayer
Father, I bring You the worries I keep rehearsing. Quiet my racing thoughts and let Your peace settle over me.
