8 Verses For Those With Anxiety
Dr. Odd

I get it. Sometimes you walk around just living life, and then all of a sudden you feel like the breath has been sucked from your lungs and has no way of returning. You have those moments of sheer panic and chaos, and you feel like it is all your fault. You feel like you have no one to turn to, but that is definitely not true. The love of our God takes away all of that fear and disarray. Digging deep into the Word helps you to realize that you are never alone.

1."Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6

You cannot do this life alone. Lean onto God and give Him all your worries.

2. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

Through prayer and request, God will give you peace of mind.

3. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

Follow God and he will lighten the weight you carry on your shoulders.

4. "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27

Do not worry for God will give you the peace you desperately long for.

5. "Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up." Proverbs 12:25

Let every word that comes out be that of a positive nature. Everything is so much easier with a smile.

6. "Even though I walk through the darkest valley,I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." Psalm 23:4

Do not fear the things happening in your life for the Lord will be there to protect you and comfort you.

7. "Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken." Psalm 55:22

Give Him all of your worries and He will help you to thrive.

8. "When I am afraid, I put my trust in you." Psalm 56:3

This is a favorite for me. Simply trust in the Lord when you find yourself face-to-face with fear.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
