576 Take it to the Lord in prayer



When we are worried or upset about an issue, we should give to over to God. God does not want us to be anxious or worried about things we cannot change. When we entrust the issues to God, we acknowledge God’s power at work in the situation to change and heal. In doing so, we learn to relax, having entrusted situations and people to God. Prayer is a way of drawing close to God and to other people. It is also a way to deepen our trust in God’s acts on our behalf.

Luke 11:13
If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.
