As we continue to explore the challenges of worry in our lives and the prescription Paul gave us in Philippians chapter 4, we should take a moment to acknowledge one reality about how our brains are wired as human beings. Our human minds are engineered by God to remember things, not to forget them.
It’s impossible for us to simply not think about something. So if all Paul told us in that passage in Philippians 4 was “don’t worry” then we’d be in a bad way. Because even with prayer and being blanketed with God’s peace, the thought is still hanging there in our brains.
