I deal with a lot of fear and anxiety on a daily basis, and one thing that I notice that always helps me manage it is diving into God's word. I always ask myself "what would God have to say about this?" Through my time in the Word, I have found some bible verses that really stand out to me in helping with stuff like this. The bible is there to help us in times that we may feel lost and confused, it is there to serve as a comfort, and give us answers to questions that otherwise may not be answered.
