Anxiety is describe as having fear, worries, nervousness and being unease. I believe we do experience some type of anxiety at some point of time is our lives. Anxiety is a normal feeling that comes up in us when we are faced with fear or stressful situations.
God did not create his people to struggle with anxiety and fear, instead God has given us a gift of love and eternal life. When we put our life situations is God’s hand, we can feel comfort and at peace knowing we can case our cares up on God.
Let us look to God’s words when we feel anxiety. We do not have to carry anxiety around with us, because God’s words says we can cast all of our cares upon Him.
