Good morning! Anxiety is so prevalent in our society these days. I've never seen so many commercials for anxiety and depression medications. And then other medications to help when the other medicines don't work well enough.
Medication treats symptoms, but often does not treat the source of the problem. Anxiety and depression cannot be cured by medication alone. You have to change how your mind processes stress and how you think about situations.
The mind is a powerful thing and training it to work differently can be hard. This is why it takes the Biblical principles found in these verses. They are some of my favorite verses because they helped me cure Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in my life.
If you learn to take your anxieties to Jesus in prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, you will find Him meeting you in those moments with peace attached. Be thankful He is there, be thankful you can come to Him in prayer and be thankful He is greater than your emotional responses to trauma and stress. Learn these principles, put them into practice and you will always have what it takes to make a great day!
