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
Anxiety circles like a predator,
Seeking entry to your thoughts,
Promising protection through worry,
Offering control through fear.
But peace stands guard—
Not peace as the world gives,
Not mere absence of trouble,
But presence of God.
This peace defies logic.
It makes no sense to observers.
It stands firm when circumstances
Should shatter all calm.
It’s not found in solved problems,
But in surrendered prayers.
Not in controlled outcomes,
But in released burdens.
April showers may bring uncertainty,
But they also nourish new growth.
Your everyday worries, when surrendered,
Become soil for peace beyond understanding.
