Filipperne 4,6

Worry and anxietyPrayerGratitude

4 Finn alltid glede i Herren. Jeg vil gjenta: Vær glade!

5 La deres milde ånd være tydelig for alle. Herren er nær.

Vær ikke bekymret for noe, men i enhver situasjon, ved bønn og påkallelse med takksigelse, legg frem deres ønsker for Gud.

7 Og Guds fred, som overgår all forstand, vil beskytte deres hjerter og tanker i Kristus Jesus.

8 Til slutt, brødre og søstre, alt som er sant, alt som er ærefullt, alt som er rett, alt som er rent, alt som er elskelig, alt som er prisverdig—hvis noe er utmerket eller verdig til ros—tenk på disse tingene.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.

Short explanation

Do not be anxious about anything, but let God know all you need, in prayer and with thanksgiving. Paul does not say we should stop caring, but that worry can become prayer.

Context: Paul writes to the church in Philippi while he is himself in prison.
