Based on Philippians 4:4-7, this powerful spoken word acknowledges our anxieties in a Covid world, and then reveals a better way to live.
We’re living in unprecedented times. We’re out of our comfort zone, out of control, filled with mixed up emotions. Where do we turn?
This spoken word takes us to another lockdown two millennia ago. What does the apostle Paul write from a prison cell when he’s threatened by anxiety? ‘Do not be anxious. Pray and receive God’s peace. Rejoice!’
With thoughtful acknowledgements that this may be new language and strange concepts for some, be challenged that what we think and feel about God is important - whether we’re sinking or swimming.
God doesn’t promise an easy life, but he offers something far more solid than finding inner strength: real peace for our anxieties and a better way to live.
