REJOICE AND PRAY!

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle {spirit} be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. Philippians 4:4-6

Dear Father,

Let us rejoice in the Lord always! Again I ask this from you: Let us rejoice always! Let us be gentle, open to reason, slow to make negative judgments. Let this forbearing spirit be apparent to everyone. I know the Lord Jesus is near, so I have no reason to be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let us present our requests to you. We believe in you, Father, a God who transcends all human understanding. We believe that the peace which comes from you, which transcends all understanding, will keep our heart and our mind in Christ Jesus.

In the name of loving Jesus.
Amen.
