Emotions
Anxiety
Constant worry and a sense of alarm that make it hard to rest or think calmly.
What the Bible can tell you
In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
Philippians 4:6
Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.
Matthew 6:34
casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7
A human reading
Anxiety makes the future seem more dangerous than it is. The text invites us to bring each worry to God, one step at a time. If anxiety interferes with your life, sleep, or work, talk with a doctor or a mental health professional.
This page offers reflection and companionship; it does not replace a professional. If what you feel weighs heavily or lasts for weeks, talk with someone you trust or with a health professional.
