The Grands Letter (GLJ)
Gene L. Jeffries, Th.D. on September 24, 2016 8:27 am (CST)Dear Grands,
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 comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
We live in an increasingly dangerous world. Things that occurred only occasionally
a few years ago, seem to be happening almost daily. What are we to do? First, don’t
live scared! Nothing can happen to you of which the LORD is unaware. But, we are
not to be caviler or behave carelessly. Rather, we are to pray faithfully, “by prayer and
supplication.” Prayer is for His blessings; and supplication is praying to avoid catastrophes.
Whatever occurs, we are to express thanksgiving –for every event, prosperity and affliction
alike. The LORD’s promise is that He will give us peace in the midst of every storm, and He
will set a guard over our hearts and minds –all through our LORD Jesus Christ. Amazing!
Love and Peace to you all,
Nana & Dado III
