Has there ever been something that you really wanted to do but anxiety got in the way of you even trying something out? I think we have all been there. I want to share with you guys a part of my life where I used to not have a lot going on and got bored easily. A part of it was anxiety because it's really true anxiety can get in the way of you going to try new things or even to just get your life together as in getting a job.
Over the past few years a lot has changed for me. I found my passion in writing and encouraging others in their faith. I also have found some things as in anti anxiety meds and such to help me with my anxiety as well as God's word has helped me tremendously with my anxiety and to push through.
As in verses like the one above Joshua 1:9 and....
"For God has not given us a spirit of fear; but of power and of love, and of a sound mind" 2 Timothy 1:7
"When I am afraid; I will put my trust in you" Psalm 56:3
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of it's own" Matthew 6:34....
I have learned over the past few years that you can't just sit there and not do what it is that you want to do. Create the life that you really want to live. So if you want to get a job take that step find something that will work for you or even try something new like I did at this place called Krispack which is kind of like food packaging. I didn't know how it would work out for me but I took that step and did it and it turned out to be the perfect fit....
Another example is I just recently went to my first bible study group to study the Bible with other people. Yes, I was nervous but I have been really wanting to be apart of something like this so I went and turned out all the people were nice there and I had a good time.
So sometimes you have to take a leap of faith and just go out and try some new things that you really want to have as a part of your life. You may not be so sure because of anxiety or fear but you never know like these examples I have shared with you it may turn out to be a great fit.
What I learned in my bible study group this session is that God is always with us and will give us the strength we need to do something. God's plans will always prevail. So take that chance and be Strong and Courageous for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go...
