Silencing the Hum in Your Life
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7
In Vineland, New Jersey, a mysterious hum is keeping people up at night and causing them anxiety.
The source of the noise is a nearby AI Data Center that is under construction.
The article that I was reading said,
“It is unclear exactly what residents are hearing. The 2.6-million-square-foot, multi-building data center — which will eventually be more than twice the size of the nearby Cumberland Mall — isn’t close to finished yet.
The company overseeing the project says residents are hearing construction-related noise and the project isn’t violating any local noise ordinances.”*
Lots of people in our world have a similar experience. They are kept up at night by the “hum” of their own worries, fears, and anxiety. But this is not the way that God wants us to live, and He has given us a way to silence the hum that keeps us awake.
The solution?
Give those worries to Him.
And He tells us to give “everything” that troubles us to Him.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7
What a promise!
Now, sleep well.
Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for giving us the peace that passes all understanding as we give our cares and worries to You. You are great, and greatly to be praised. In Jesus’ Name, we pray, Amen.
I recently preached a sermon on this very topic. You can listen to it here.
