Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6 NIV
OK. "God, we need a car. Ours is toast, nada, caput. Not by our own hand either. We need a car. And yea I'm anxious about it. I'm only human. It's been a lot of stress on us. I've gained weight and lost sleep. The hubby is down too. How can we not be anxious?
But Lord I'll trust that you know better. I'll trust that you know our situation. I'll trust that you've given us the wisdom to know which one we need get. I'll trust that you will lead us to the right one. But I'll still be anxious because that's how humans work."
So that's my request. Simply stated. No flowery words. God knows my heart. He knows your heart. No need to sugarcoat anything. Just tell him what you need.
Then be sure to tell him thank you when he answers.
