Anxiety



For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control. 

2 Timothy 1:7

It is easy for someone to say “get a grip,” when they are not the one who is upset or stressed or worried.  We in and of ourselves have nothing to grip, but we do have our faith that God is on our side and that He will take care of us and all our needs.

If we believe that God’s word is true, then we can know that God is in control and that He is watching out for us.  We cannot change anything by worrying, but we can change our attitude to one of trusting God. 

Memorize this scripture and when anxiety reaches out to grab you, say this out loud once or twice or three times or more.  Let your heart and mind find peace.
