6 Bible verses for the anxious soul

In This Article:

I worry about everything from what others think of me to what I should eat for breakfast. When I worry or feel anxious, I like to turn to the one who created me. There are several verses in the God's word that remind me not to worry or not to be anxious. I look to these verses when I hit lows in my life. I read these when I question my faith or why God puts me through things. I have found my source of comfort when I need it. Little did I know He has been here for me the whole time.

1. Matthew 6:25-26

"Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"

2. Philippians 4:6-7

Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.
