I was preparing for confirmation class tonight when I came across this passage from Philippians:

Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revel in him! Make it as clear as you can to all you meet that you’re on their side, working with them and not against them. Help them see that the Master is about to arrive. He could show up any minute!

Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

Philippians 4:4-7

Fantastic stuff, good for the soul, challenging for life. It makes it sound so simple. I want to be the one who makes it clear to all that I meet that I am on their side!
