Philippians 4:8

Be Anxious For Nothing

⁷ Then, through your union with Christ Jesus, the peace of God, that surpasses all human thought, will keep guard over your hearts and thoughts. ⁸ Now, brothers, practice thinking on what is true, what is honorable, what is right, what is pure, what is lovable, what is high-toned, yes, on everything that is excellent or praiseworthy. ⁹ Practice the things you learned, received, and heard from me, things that you saw me do, and then the God who gives us peace will be with you.
