01The verses

“In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.”

Philippians 4:6, 7 · ASV

02Meaning

Paul doesn’t say problems disappear, but that God’s peace will “guard” our hearts like a garrison. Prayer that includes thanksgiving helps us see our situation more clearly.
