Hollywood Prayer Network On Anxiety & WorrySample
DON'T BE ANXIOUS - BRING GOOD CHEER!
"Why worry? If you've done the very best you can, worrying won't make it any better.” Walt Disney
PRAY: Dear Father, thank You so much for the gift of words that can change lives and circumstances. Thank You that when I feel anxious that You can send someone to me to cheer me up. Would you please use me to cheer up others with a kind word, so that I can be a part of helping them to feel less anxious? I don't want a heavy heart, and I don't want the people I love to have heavy hearts. Please guide my tongue and not let me be weighed down by anxiety.
REFLECT: Think about when someone changed your whole day by saying something kind to you. Do you know any people around you who have the gift of encouragement? Are you someone who lifts up others through your words? Reflect on ways you can lessen your anxiety, or others', by speaking words of kindness, truth, and joy to people around you, and to yourself.
ACT: Watch your words today and see if you can encourage a family member, a co-worker, or a close friend. We all feel anxious, and you could relieve the anxiety in others by going out of your way to say something encouraging and uplifting to them. And if you are feeling anxious today, don't spend time with people who are negative or complain, for that will heighten your anxiety. Use your words carefully, but be generous with kindness.
We would love to hear from you!

About this Plan
HPN wants to meet your personal spiritual needs and supply you a solid daily devotional, as well as encourage you to include praying for the people, the projects, and the incredible influence of the Hollywood entertainment industry. We see it as the world’s most influential mission field and yet the people there struggle with the same issues that we do. This week we’re facing one of the most powerful and debilitating emotions that we experience: ANXIETY/WORRY. God tells us over and over again in His Word that we are not to worry, we’re not to feel anxious, and yet we struggle with it every day. If we could truly trust God to give us wisdom, guide us in our thoughts and conversations and have the faith to let Him take care of the details of our life, we would feel freedom and joy, despite our circumstances. Let’s try to master a sense of peace by giving our anxiety and worry to Him this week!
