Let’s Talk About AnxietyChikamu

Have you ever felt like all of your stress and anxiety seem to pile up, and you just can’t take it anymore? I can think of times when I’ve had a lot of tests or hard projects at school, and I was so stressed that I felt miserable. But the good news is that we can get through all of that anxiety we feel in these situations when we bring it to God. No matter what may be going on in our life, nothing is too much for God to handle. So, instead of dreading the big tests or whatever else might be causing our stress, we can trust that God will handle our future. If we focus on what is currently happening in our life, instead of worrying about tomorrow, or next week, we can get rid of that miserable, anxious feeling and be able to focus on the good things that are around us instead.

So, the next time you feel stressed or anxious, pray about it. Tell God what’s happening and what you’re feeling. Then, decide to trust God with it. Remember, there is nothing that God can’t do!
