11 Bible Verses About Anxiety
ellenandjesus.blogspot.com

Satan's most popular weapon is Fear and he definitely knows who to use it against us. On the days that I'm overwhelmed or stressed, I find comfort in knowing that if I take a few deep breaths and trust in the Lord, that I will be okay in the end.

" Anxiety is a result of envisioning the future without Jesus"


Here are eleven bible verses that will remind you to cast your fears away:

1. Matthew 6:25, 32-34

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?" For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself, each day has enough trouble of its own."

2. Philippians 4:6-7

"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."

3. Matthew 11:28

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

4. Psalm 55:22

"Cast your burden on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken."

5. Isaiah 41:10

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

6. Psalm 94:19

"When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul."

7. Proverbs 12:25

"An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up."

8. Deuteronomy 31:6

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."

9. 1 Peter 3:14

"But even if you suffer for doing what is right, God will reward you for it. So don't worry or be afraid of their threats."

10. Psalm 42:4

"I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears."

11. Mark 4:39-40

"He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school.

While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
