Revelation and Reassurance

Read: Philippians 4:1–7

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6

Baby-gender reveals in 2019 were dramatic. In July, a video showed a car emitting blue smoke to indicate, “It’s a boy!” In September, a crop-duster plane in Texas dumped hundreds of gallons of pink water to announce, “It’s a girl!” There was another “reveal,” though, that uncovered significant things about the world these children will grow up in. At the conclusion of 2019, YouVersion revealed that the most shared, highlighted, and bookmarked verse of the year on its online and mobile Bible app was Philippians 4:6, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

That’s quite the revelation. People are anxious about many things these days—from the needs of our sons and daughters, to the myriad ways family and friends are divided, to natural catastrophes and wars. But in the middle of all these worries, the good news is that many people cling to a verse that says, “Do not be anxious about anything.” Furthermore, those same people encourage others as well as themselves to present every request to God “in every situation.” The mindset that doesn’t ignore but faces life’s anxieties is one of “thanksgiving.”

The verse that didn’t make “verse of the year” but follows it is—“And the peace of God . . . will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (v. 7). That’s quite the reassurance! — John Blase

What are two or three situations you’re worried about? How might reflecting on the ways God’s peace has carried you in the past be helpful?   

Jesus, some days and weeks and years feel overwhelming. Thank You for Your peace, which guards me yesterday, today, and forever.

Bible in a year: Deuteronomy 11–13; Mark 12:1–27

Howdy, Kathy.

It must have been a rough start to the week. I hope Hump Day means a chance to catch your breath tonight.

[luvie]

Remember our troops for sure
...because they are the ones who keep us safe and free!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Pro...we MUST remember them, and doubly so in these uncertain times.

Good evening, radu...have the storms passed you by yet?

A couple more inches of snow today...heavy snow, but it shoveled off the deck in sheets. Cool to watch.

[MoochPooch]

Evening, Kathy! So happy to see our army!

[radu]

Hey there, Kathy.

We didn’t have any storms here when the front passed through last night. Just hours of steady rainfall that gave us 1.7 inch. Cloudy and chilly today but it SUPPOSED to warm up a little tomorrow and Friday. Snow Friday night. BRRRRR

I saw you got more snow today. It looks pretty coming down as long as it’s somewhere else. LOL

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...is your snow still melting? Is your “area” snow free yet so Penny can step outside?

We had more snow, but the days are still above freezing.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

We made it through hump day.

Are you warming up yet? Snow starting to melt?

It’s melting in the daytime here, then snowing at night. *sigh* I’m tired of this cycle.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I’m hoping the rough part is over with the printing of checks late today.

It was going pretty smoothly til this morning. I had to spend at least 3 hours in the morning, and another 2 hours in the afternoon trying to make the garnishments do what they were supposed to...a VERY frustrating day. But, finally, everything balanced.

Tonight is a “no work” zone” and early to bed with a good book.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hello Veterans, wherever you are!!

[radu]

Those garnishments are getting to be a real pain lately. Worse than they've been all along. At least you managed to get them done.

Tonight is a "no work" zone" and early to bed with a good book.

GOOD!!!!!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, luvie...we will remember them.
