Dear Church family,
Don’t be anxious about anything??
Three months after lockdown, life is starting to look more familiar again, thankfully. But whatever our situation it’ll never be perfect. There’s always something to fret about.
The apostle Paul had plenty to fret about: he was in prison; under threat of execution, when he wrote:
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6-7

– That God is calling all the shots in this life;
– That God is using everything in this life for His good purposes.
Could God really be orchestrating everything? The good and the bad? And using it all for His good purposes?

Your brother in Christ,
