The Anxiety Cure

b'Are you anxious? Are you going through a difficult time? You know, it\\u2019s normal to be stressed out every now and then, but I believe that we actually choose to forfeit peace when we do not spend time in prayer. Think about it. We usually experience the most anxiety when we are feeling busy and overwhelmed. And often, when we feel this way, we forget to set aside time to pray. But my friend, I want to remind you today that prayer has real power. Spending time talking to \\u2014 and listening to \\u2014 God Almighty will make a huge difference. Prayer not only releases God\\u2019s power in your life, but brings His peace into your stressful situation. Philippians 4:6 and 7 says, \\u201cdo not be anxious about anything, 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 your minds in Christ Jesus.\\u201d So, I challenge you to spend at least 15 minutes in prayer each day. Ask God to help you through the situations causing anxiety, and ask Him to reveal who He wants you to share His Good News with. This is Luis Palau.'
