Anxiety

While many of us may have been out of school for a while now, it’s not hard to think back to those “big” tests. Maybe you were prepared, maybe you weren’t, regardless there is a sense of anxiety we get in order to pass through those moments that are weighting down on us. Our promises are clear from God in the Bible. When we put our trust in Him, we have nothing to fear! Is fear creeping up in your life? Are you being overwhelmed with anxiety? There is a simple but difficult answer, put your trust in Him!

Further reading | Philippians 4:4-14

⁴ Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice! ⁵ Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon.^[a]

⁶ Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. ⁷ Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.

⁸ And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. ⁹ Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.

Paul’s Thanks for Their Gifts

¹⁰ How I praise the Lord that you are concerned about me again. I know you have always been concerned for me, but you didn’t have the chance to help me. ¹¹ Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have.¹² I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. ¹³ For I can do everything through Christ,^[b] who gives me strength.¹⁴ Even so, you have done well to share with me in my present difficulty.
