Reason for this thread - I believe there are many things that we are exposed to in the media of this modern world that can be very troubling and can make us anxious and are things that can rattle our peace of mind if we allow them to. Often these situations show up as threads in forums. What I believe is at the root of this is a lack of trust in God. You may see this differently.
For example - 1 Peter 5:7 says
And here is a text that gives us instructions that ensures us of having a peace that is beyond understanding. Philippians 4:6-7 -Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
So, trusting God involves believing that what He says, He will do.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.
Do you agree that being anxious over anything going on in this world, is basically a lack of trust in God ?
