Overcoming Anxiety Scriptures

Overcoming Anxiety

You wrote that you are battling anxiety.  This is not unusual.  Are you  involved in a local church?  If not, let me encourage you to find a Bible believing church nearby and talk to the pastor.  If you can't do that, I am more than happy to discuss your anxiety with you.

In the meantime, here are some suggestions to help you get over your anxiety.  Make your concerns a prayer topic.

David wrote in Psalm 139:23: "Search me, O God, and know my heart!  Try me and know my thoughts!" God knows your needs and cares for you."

Philippians 4:6-7 says, "Do not be anxious about anything, 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 your minds in Christ Jesus."

Peter wrote: "Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." I Peter 5:7

If you noticed, in each case, we are encouraged to share our concerns with God.  He really does care about you and desires to lift this burden from your shoulders.
