Hey, hope you're doing great. Thanks for joining us today for the Daily Drive podcast. My name is Mike

any of that. He knows what you need. And there are many who find counseling and meds and God to be

Scripture has helped me so much, so let me just read it again, it's Philippians 4, beginning

in verse 4. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again, rejoice. Let your gentleness be

and petition with Thanksgiving, present your request to God, and the peace of God, which transcends

all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Now, we've been using

the word calm to unpack some proactive things that you and I can do

to apply these verses in those times of worry, fear, and anxiety that occasionally rise up in all of us.
