Mission Journal #4 - Don't worry, be happy!

Today's Scripture focus is from Philippians 4:4-9 (NIV)

Final Exhortations
  Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!  Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.  Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

  Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.  Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

***********************************************
What are some of your joys, fears and needs for this day.  Take time to rejoice in these areas and bring to God any anxious thoughts or concerns you may have.  He will give you the peace of heart and mind that will free you to be used by Him.

Pray for the team as they are in different culture and may not understand all that is said around them or why things are done the way they are.  Pray that they will be able to focus on the One that knows and that they will be able to show His love to those they have gone to serve.
