Philippians 4:6 In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
[Both our prayer and our petition should be accompanied by our giving thanks to the Lord (RcV footnote 4:63). Let us offer our thanksgiving to the Lord as we pray concerning these burdens.]
