Send us Fan MailHonesty, Gratitude and Trust Equals Peace (Advent 2024)“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” - Philippians 4:6Paul had a lot to be anxious about. Even though he had some relative privilege as a Roman citizen, he knew everything could be taken away from him. He was arrested, beaten, and would eventually be tried and executed because of his devotion to a movement, that was highly disruptive of the status quo. Yet in the face of all this he was able to trade his fears and anxieties for a peace that surpassed all understanding. He did this first through his practice of prayer and supplication where he named everything that was on his heart and mind, his fears, concerns, hopes, dreams and desires.He then coupled that with radical gratitude where he named any and every good thing he already had. Honesty, Gratitude and Trust equaled peace.I’m Horace McMillon.
