Peace Isn't Random


Dear Reader,

What if the very thing fueling your anxiety is also the pathway to peace?

While studying Philippians recently, I realized I had read the same verses on anxiety for years but overlooked something Paul revealed to the church in Philippi. They were under heavy pressure, facing persecution and everyday worries. And right in the middle of their struggles, Paul gave them a framework for peace that still applies to us today.

Philippians 4:6–9 (NKJV) says, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God… and the peace of God… will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

But Paul doesn’t stop there. He also showed them the access points for both peace and anxiety and THAT is what I can't wait to share with you!

Reader, the evidence of what we meditate on is revealed in what we experience—peace or anxiety.

In this week’s video, I unpack four powerful keys from Philippians that many of us have missed about these two emotions and how to choose one over the other.

Remember, Peace is not random—it’s cultivated when we choose truth and meditate on God’s Word. My prayer is that this video helps you take one more step from anxiety to lasting peace in Christ.

On the Journey with You,

Rachel
