Be anxious for nothing

Philippians 4:6-7: "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." NKJV

I just told this scripture to a friend who made a comment about being anxious, and the irony of the verse just smacked me in the face. Don't understand me? Let's try the message version:

Twilight?

I love to read. You may say "Erin, love is a strong word. Surely you mean like." Well yeah, I do. But growing up the characters in my books were my best friends. They entertained me when I moved to a new place, ensuring that I was never lonely. Even now I can lose myself for hours in a good book, not emerging until the real world insists on stepping back in. So when new books come out, I have a difficult time not reading them. 

I'll be totally transparent: I have read every Harry Potter

Jehova Rapha

The God who heals. Sounds illusive to some of you, doesn't it? You hear the testimonies of those who have prayed for others, but you have never personally seen someone be healed. When everybody gathers around to pray for someone who is sick, you think "I'm sure glad that so-&-so is praying, too. There certainly is nothing coming from me." You've tried before. You've put yourself out there and have seen nothing. And now it's just not worth it.

WAIT!
