On a scale of 1 to 10 what is your anxiety level? Anxiety can be hard to control and can lead to all kinds of problems, like: poor relationships, random behaviors, upset stomachs, headaches and exhaustion. It seems like no matter how hard you try to tell yourself to relax, it just doesn't work sometimes. Anxiety is the result of control issues when you try to control people or events, worry takes over. You start obsessing about what you need to do to make everything happen and how you want it to happen. you over analyze every detail wondering if you've covered it all. And then worry about what you'll do if something goes wrong. it takes a great amount of physical and emotional energy trying to make everyone and everything in line so that things will work out he way you want them to. The only thing that you can do to eliminate the stress is to rely on Jesus. God says that when you trust him with everything you'll have peace...the OPPOSITE of anxiety. when you let go of trying to be perfect everything-by letting God be God-you will begin to relax. Next time you stress about choices that people around you are making say a prayer and leave the outcome to God. You'll be on your way to a peaceful life. |
