\u201cDon\u2019t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God\u2019s peace, which exceeds anything we can\u2019t understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.\u201d Phil. 4:6-7 (NLT)<\/p>\n
