Psalm 139:23- Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.

Anxiety leading to one being anxious- the tragic result of prayerlessness, the feeling that brings about confusion and fear when one looks at the future...

Fear- the absence of FAITH, caused by being anxious.

FAITH- the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Prayer- a doable thing that brings about FAITH in God, chases away ALL fear by cutting the root called anxiety.

And then the bible says:

Phil.4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Psalm 94:19 When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.

How much truth in the words "God never gives us what we cannot handle", you may be feeling beat down and out of the "game" thinking you do not have in you what it takes to get to the other side but you are wrong, you are so wrong... the user manual is available, turn the pages and start reading, not only will you gain knowledge but you will also be revived... look towards the future with eyes of hope and faith and love, God will never leave your side...

May God bless you richly.
