Worry does NOT empty TOMORROW of its SORROW, it empties TODAY of its STRENGTH--Corrie Ten Boom Overcoming Worry a prayer by Germaine Copeland out of PRAYERS THAT AVAIL MUCH Father, I seek, inquire for, and crave peace. I pursue (go after) it! When my ways please You, Lord, You make even my enemies to be at peace with me. Lord, You have given to me Your peace; Your (own) peace. You have bequeathed to me. It is not the peace that the world gives. I will not let my heart be troubled, neither will I let it be afraid. (I refuse to be agitated and disturbed; and I will not permit myself to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.) Instead of worrying, I will pray. I will let petitions and praises shape my worries into prayers, letting You, Father, know my concerns, not forgetting to thank You for the answers. Your peace will keep my thoughts and my heart quiet and at rest as I trust in Christ Jesus, my Lord. It is wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of my life. Thank You for guarding me and keeping me in perfect and constant peace. My mind (both its inclination and its character) is stayed on You. I commit myself to You, lean on You, and hope confidently in You. I let the peace (soul harmony that comes) from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in my heart (deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in my mind). I am thankful (appreciative), (giving praise to You always). In Jesus Name. Amen... Scripture References Philippians 4:6,7 Colossians 3:15 Proverbs 16:7 Psalm 34:14 John 14:27 Isaiah 26:3
