“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends
all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right,
whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received from me – put it into practice.
And the God of peace will be with you.” (Philippians 4:6-9)
