Anxiety

Proverbs 12:25 “Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up.” “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Takeaways: 1. Anxiety is a feeling of fear about a possible outcome. 2. In this usage, the “heart” is the seat of the soul or the self. A person is weighed down with worry when their heart is. 3. There is great power in kindness. Words have the power to destroy and the power to build up. Biblical truth from the Word of God is the most helpful and the most powerful kind of word one can speak to a brother or sister in the grip of anxiety.
