Mental Health, a Biblical Recipe

Philippians 4:6-9 (New International Version)

6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8Finally, brothers, 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. 9Whatever 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.

The Biblical recipe for mental health: 1) pray; 2) think; 3) do.

Thanks for that -- I will try to do more of the pray-think-do. -- especially the pray -- the thinking will be hard -- but I think I can "do" Love, Martha
