5 Bible Verses for an Anxious Heart
Santa Banta

When the stresses of life weigh you down, it is so easy to become overwhelmed and let anxiety overbear your life. Lean on these Bible verses to help you get through the times you feel like you are drowning in the circumstances life throws at you.

1. "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?" -Luke 12:25-26 We worry about so many things that are out of our control. God wants us to learn to be content with every situation because it is all part of His plan. Even when it seems like your world is falling apart, let God carry you and make people wonder how you've stayed so positive through your struggle.

2. "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God" -Philippians 4:6 God knows the desires of your heart and wants you to know the depths of His love for you. Do not be anxious, God will guide you through your hardest battles and always has your best interest at hand.

3. "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" -Isaiah 41:10 You weren't created to go through this life alone. Let your heart be filled with certainty that God is always going to hold you, even when you may not feel His presence.

4. "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself" -Matthew 6:34 Stop planning so much and take a step back to live in the moment. We have nothing to worry about for our futures are in God's hands.

5. "Be still, and know that that I am God" -Isaiah 46:10 Take a deep breath. Be still for just a moment. Amid all of your stress, feel God's peace in your heart.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
