||do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, BY PRAYER AND THANKSGIVING, present your requests to God. And THEN, the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4: 6-7|| Growing up, whenever I was anxious, my mom would pray over me that I would receive the peace that surpasses all understanding. It was only in the past couple of years that I understood what that actually meant. It’s not just your average peace. This is the peace comes even when it is completely illogical to feel peace. When every part of your brain tells you to fight or flight, this peace tells you to be still. But there’s an important factor that the scripture tells us we need to do in order to experience this peace. PRAY. PRAISE. WORSHIP. And THEN, you will be so saturated in His peace that those anxious thoughts won’t be able to pe*****te your heart or mind. Sometimes I don’t know what to say so I praise instead. I created a “Peace” playlist that I will share to my stories. These are the songs that help me enter into His peace, remind me of truth, and help me to surrender. I pray that they help you, too!
