This week we will continue in our series A Light in the Darkness applying the Gospel to the dark thoughts that swirl around in our hearts and minds. This week we will consider what the Bible has to say about anxiety. Anxiety is a growing problem in our world and particularly in younger generations. The good news is that the Gospel meets our anxiety with great hope and peace. In Philippians 4:5-9 Paul gives us the Christian remedy to anxiety. He tells us three really important and practical things. First, God is at hand. In other words he is near and wants to help us in the things that we worry about. Second, he calls us to hand off our anxiety to God in prayer. We do that with earnest request and thanksgiving. Third, Paul instructs us to think on good and Godly things. This is really practical advice that can shed God’s light into the darkness of anxiety that can easily weigh us down. Finally, Paul tells us the result of walking out these really practical steps is that the peace of God will be with us and in us, and we will be guarded from further anxiety. That is great news. [Unfortunately there was a power outage in the area of the church during the sermon before this sermon ended, but we got most of the sermon]
