Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phillipians 4:6-7 (NLT)
Staying calm under stress
I usually ride my bike to work, and on this particular morning, I was knocked over by a car. The funny thing is that normally I would have reacted very strongly if something like this happened but I found that I was very calm dealing with the situation. In fact what was more surprising was that I was speaking to the driver who hit me as though he was the one who had been hit. I was really surprised because even when I got home I was still calm, so I want to thank God for keeping me safe and allowing me to be calm under an otherwise stressful situation.
