John 14:27 (KJV) 27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Philippians 4:6 (KJV) 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

This is the message in my daily devotional for today:
God tells us to thank Him for our problems. As soon as our mind gets snagged on a difficulty, we need to bring it to Him with thanksgiving. Then ask Him to show us His way to handle the situation. The act of thanking Him releases your mind from its negative focus and as we turn our attention to Him the problem fades in importance and loses it power to trip us up. Together, with God, we can deal with the situation in the best way possible because He is now in control. We can face it head-on or put it aside for later consideration.

When we give it to God to handle He gives us peace because we are in His presence.

When we can do this it saves us a lot of heartache and pain. By thanking Him we release His power and glory on our lives and He is able to work the wonders that He has in store for us.
