Philippians 4:6,7 Do not be anxious over anything, but in everthing by prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. With Sympathy.
