How 2 get the peace of the Lord from Prayer


I want to share my througths on staying in a peaceful mind by handing all your worrys and fears to the Lord, who cares for us where ever we are.

Each morning I wake up, I thank God for a new day and ask him to guide my steps though the day. Then I read the days verse out of "Our Daily Bread", then I say my prayers, always starting for my family and friends needs and then news items and ending with myself. But my prayers dont end there, when every a worry or someone comes to my mind I will pray for it, before I can worry to much and spoil my peace!.

Can I give you an example, when my son came home today he told me he had a run in with a angry boy on the bus, he sat down in a seat and the boy got mad and said" Aaaaa thats my seat move"!!!!, Tony shouted at the boy and did not move so the boy stormed off and sat somewhere else. Then when Tony left the bus the boy got behind him and got hold of his neck and chocked him a bit. Tony said he wished he had got his key and stabbed him, I said would of made thing worse. He was ok physical when he got home but was mad. Now at one time a day I would get real upset and worried about this. But tonight I told Tony he was right not to do nothing, and then Thanked God that it did not end up worse than it did, and for looking after Tony. Then asked God to look after him again every day and left at that and did not worry about it any more( though Tony was still in a bad mood!!!).

Hope this example has got to the point. God Bless may all my family and friends live in the peace of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirt!!! AMEN
