Peace in the Storm
Verse: Philippians 4:6-7 — “Do not be anxious about anything... And the peace of God... will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Reflection: Anxiety can overwhelm, but God offers peace that surpasses understanding. Bring your worries to Him in prayer.

Prayer: God, calm my heart. Replace my anxiety with Your peace and help me to trust You fully.
