Fretting about something...........

It appears that I do fret often. Often I think back of my mistakes such as slip of being too blunt or something I did which I regreted or something is on my mind (usually financial). I understand that fretfulness can rob me of my peace and joy of Christ. In our sinful society, I am easy prey to fretfulness when my gaze is fixed circumstances rather than upon God. Philippians 4:6 (The Message) Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. (New Living Translation) Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. (NIV)Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. (KJV) Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. (NKVJ) Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. God's timing is usually quite different from mine. I am reminded that my circumstances regardless how it is, whether its my mistakes or situations of my life, it is fully accords with His will and purpose. I have to wait patiently, faithfully wait for the Lord. As Philippians 4:6 is telling me that I lay my causes for fretting before God now and leave it there with Him. Knowing the Scriptures and knowing God will should cure my fretting spirit by giving me peace spirit. Romans 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 7:15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
