So my original goal was to find only one verse for me to go off of for this post but as I was reading I found several. So we are going to go off of all of them, because why not?
1 Peter 5:7 - “Cast all your Anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of Its own.”
These verses have been my comfort for a while now, as I feel like every single thing in life lately is completely unpredictable. Which if you know me, you know that really freaks me out. I’m a planner, and I like to know whats going to happen next at all times. Yes I know that's impossible. Hopefully I’m not the only one. I feel like my brain is on overload and I’m anxious about anything it’s possible to be anxious about and trying to fix it myself just isn’t working out very well. I’m trying to learn to give everything to God and trust him. He knows, and he cares. Nothing at all is too insignificant to bring to him in prayer, and its never a waste.
I wanted to share some activities that have been helpful to me when coping with my anxiety, in hope that it may be helpful to some of you as well.
*Music is something that really speaks to me, it always has. Sometimes I just lock myself in my room, put on my headphones and listen to my favorite songs and sing praises, it brings me a lot of peace.
*Prayer, try to have your day be a continual prayer and anytime that you get anxious give it to God right then and there and leave it with him.
*Studying his word. Try to find some verses that talk about what you’re going through, choose one to memorize.
We may not know what’s going to happen next, but God does. And its nice to know that we can trust our future in his hands no matter what happens, no matter if its what we think we wanted, no matter if it wasn’t what we expected, it will be what’s best for us. Because he loves us. I really hoped this helped some of you that have felt the same way as I have lately. God bless.
