Out of Control and Anxious
We like to be in control of our lives because we feel that being in control will protect the things that are most important to us. When we lose control of a situation we often get anxious. We should not get anxious when a situation is out of our hands because it is still in God's hands. When we worry it is because we have stopped trusting that God will provide for us. The Bible teaches us that we should cast our anxieties on God because He cares for us as a loving Father and He has promised to provide for our needs.

GOD of Tomorrow
The battles we need to win in life are not carnal, but spiritual. Spiritual battles are not battles we can hope to win because we are not equipped to do those battles. These battles are Gods battles. Pray, Worship, Obey and let God do our spiritual battling. If you spend today worring about yesterday and tomorrow you have just wasted today.

Building a Garrison of Peace
Conflict is a common issue in any church or ministry. In the Philippian church, 2 strong ladies were engaged in some sort of dispute that was public enough to reach the ears of the Apostle Paul in jail. Paul interrupted his letter here to encourage them to find a solution and encourage others to see them as true believers whose names were written in the "book of life." In the bible, there are 2 books of life - 1) the book of the living - a book that you can be blotted out of and 2) the book of eternal life - a book that you cannot be blotted out of. In light of this, Paul says to us that there are to needs you have to garrison your life. The first need is to know that this garrison in your life is a garrison of peace. Here, Paul encouraged the women - Euodia and Syntyche - to reconcile and called alone a true companion to assist in the reconciliation process. Secondly, Paul tells us how to build this "garrison of peace" in our lives by giving several imperatives for peaceful living. These imperatives include: 1) Rejoice always, 2) Be Gentle, 3) Don't Worry, 4) Pray 5) Trust in Peace. There is a marvelous progression that Paul's imperatives bring, and what grace they would mean for the Philippians and us as they are implemented.
