Faith Focused Fridays

Faith Focused Friday

I have not personally struggled with anxiety but have obviously been anxious throughout my life and the experiences it has brought me. Yes two totally different things. I am very aware. Either way the word of God tells us to never be anxious, to always pray with thanksgiving your requests to God and you will be given peace.

Sometimes we think we are living the path God has laid out for us, but find that somewhere we took a wrong turn. To me, anxiousness, stress, a life of worry, is a sign that we have missed a step, a turn something in our path because God wants non of those things for us.

He wants us to live by His rules and when He blesses us abundantly, give Him the glory. Seems simple enough, but our human nature has other plans. It is a constant battle to keep the right mindset, to continually evaluate your circumstances and be brave enough, willing enough to adjust what brings you away from God and enhance the things that bring you closer!

If you haven’t guessed it already this week’s verse is Philippians 4:6-7

    I never looked at stress and anxiety from that perspective… very interesting and a signal to lean in when it’s the hardest. We cannot do this journey on our own- He is in control 💙
