OVERVIEW

For the past years, I felt like I'm just running around in circles. Seems like things were repeating themselves years after years. Have you ever experience that as well? It's like you're fighting a losing battle, your time and effort are being wasted. That doesn't sound good, right? That feeling of unsteadiness where you're unsure of where you're headed. And sometimes I do ask myself, am I even closer to my dreams? Lord, are we there yet? I am just so curious. 

There is really a time in life where we may feel lost in the middle of the journey. We may stumble and fall while running the road, trying to reach the end of the line. I think that's part of the process. It's not really a bad thing after all. Day after day we are being trained by God to be the person He called us to be.


A famous preacher explained that crushing is very crucial before we prosper. Just like baby birds they aren't born already know how to fly. It is also a trial and error for them, it includes falling from the net so many times till they are able to spread their wings and soar.


Crushing caused overwhelming disappointment or embarrassment. At this stage, many people find it difficult to get through. We must view our problems and challenges in life as an opportunity to grow till we're ready for the breakthrough. If not, we may constantly feel defeated.


BRUCE LEE

    "I'm moving and not moving at all. The consciousness of self is the greatest hindrance to the proper execution of all physical action."




In our life, we dare to complain a lot. Have you ever question or blame God for your miserable life? Honestly, I once did. And I am not very proud of it. I was so angry at my situation cause I feel stuck, discouraged, and worthless. However, I realized that most often, I am the creator of my own mess. Trouble is the result of my pride and disobedience to the Word. But the Lord is faithful to His promises. At that moment where I was sick, lost, and weak, He never left. He leads me back to the still waters, He showed me the way.

Know that a series of small actions is very important in achieving our goals. Remember little things matter! It is okay to assess yourself. Be honest with yourself. Admit you're wrong. Accept that you're not really going somewhere. That is the first step to move forward. 

Moving forward must be really hard if you keep going back to the past. This requires trust, hope, and faith. Faith in something that we haven't seen yet. 

LAILAH GIFTY AKITA

    "Hope is an enthusiastic assurance."

In other words, hope is what we get from believing. As it says in Hebrews 11:1, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." If you don't know what path to take now and you're confused, you're guilty, you're thinking that you can't start over again. You're wrong! God will make a way for you.


HOW TO GET BACK ON TRACK?

1. HUMBLE YOURSELF

This is always the first step in reconciliation. Humility is one of the hardest things to do, in this world where we are shown how to get even. Inner refusal, disapproval, objection, and arguing; contradict gentleness, kindness, and humility. 

Decide now! Humble yourself and open up your heart to God. It is not yet the end. This is what God says:

ISAIAH 44:22

"I have swept away your offenses like a cloud, your sins like the morning mist. Return to me, for I have redeemed you."

Wow! As I was reading this, I cannot explain the joy in my heart, I'm so grateful that my God and your God is a loving Father, a forgiving God. He's always there to teach us, understand us, and save us when we make mistakes. He's just waiting for you to come back. It always takes courage to humble one's self, but once you did. Rest assured that it's going to be the greatest decision you will ever make. 


2. GO BACK TO WHERE YOU STARTED

I suppose you will only get lost if you repeatedly perceive defeat. If you magnify the negative and keep distracted, you're not really going anywhere, or you may, but it'll take a little longer. 

However, this is the time for you to recall what's really in your heart. What is your covenant with God? Why did you choose to follow God in the first place? That will serve as your inspiration to continue the race. 

Before I personally knew Christ and accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior, my life before was completely different. I would describe myself as someone that is fake living in cover-ups, always fearful and most of the time frustrated especially when I didn't get what I wanted. My focus was on the world's standard of beauty, relationships, and riches. I thought that all matters. I was not aware that I was living a life that doesn't please God.

God found me and still loved me at my darkest. He freed me from any bondages and strongholds. Every time I remember this, I always feel grateful and blessed. As I looked back, I am being reminded of my first love and heartbeat for the Lord. I am here to where I am now, because of Him.

If you don't know where to start. Go back in time. Reminisce how it all started - your journey of faith. It is said in:

ECCLESIASTES 12:1

    "Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore."


3. CHANGE YOUR LIFE PATTERNS

Whatever you do on a daily basis is beneficial for your overall results. Don't expect that you will succeed if you're still doing the same old habits.

2 Corinthians 5:17

    "This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!"

Lao Tzu says:

    "If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading."


Would you not love to change for the better? No one likes to be stuck in an old dark place of our lives. And somewhere somehow, we all do want to reach a certain destination, yet why do we keep living through our old nature. Personally, the reason why I was off the track for a long time is that I tend to live in the same life patterns. I was looking forward that my life will improve however, I'm still not changing my ways.

These past few weeks, I started to write down in my planner my "Principles and Convictions". It is important for me, for it will serve as the foundation of what I believe for, just like a covenant to myself that must not be broken. I was very decisive and so sure about it. I pray for each one at a time. I ask the Holy Spirit in prayer to remind me of it instantly when temptation is near. That way I could maintain living in accordance to the Will of God. Through this, I know that I will remain firm, and no matter what, I will fulfill my promises to myself and to God. 



I don't know how you live your life now. But for me, what I've shared earlier is something that really works for me. What's really important is that you must not continue settling in unrighteousness. Make a new life pattern, new practices, new attitude, it'll change you!


4. FAITH AND PATIENCE

Faith is believing while patience is the ability to endure, together it means diligently hoping that something is about to happen at the right time. It is to accept delay without getting aggravated. I heard once a pastor preaches on his sermon about:

HEBREWS 12:6,

    "That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises."

He emphasized that those who are faithful and patient, inherit God's promises! I agree! Probably you know about the story of Abraham who waited for so many years and still believes in God though he and his wife are old. God promised that his descendants will be as numerous as the stars and the sand on the seashore. He waited 25 years and the Lord gave them a son, Isaac. 

Jacob waited 14 years before he could be with Rachel. They seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her (Genesis 29:20). 

You cannot have faith and do not have the patience or else you'll always complain all throughout the waiting process. Neither you cannot have patience and do not have faith, otherwise, it only means you're waiting for something you don't believe at all.

Been waiting for so long? Almost losing patience? Maybe you're on the right track now and you just don't realize it. You know what, you're one step closer to God's promises. Do not quit. Do not be discouraged.


5. GO BACK TO YOUR GOALS

December is the last month of the year, this is the season where I evaluate myself. Was I able to achieve some goals, are we able to create great memories or memorable experiences? It's the period to recognize how God has been faithful all throughout the challenges and victories in my life. At the same time, I am super excited because the new year is approaching. It only means that every ending has a new beginning.

When December comes, I started to wonder what would be my goal for the upcoming year. It's really good to start something new, start afresh, and don't commit the same mistakes again. During those days, I will write my plans and objectives and post them on my bedroom wall. This will serve as my motivation and target goals for the year. It looks like this:

  • The salvation of Family Members and Loved Ones
  • Spiritual Maturity (Be a Responsible Cell Leader)
  • New Work, Business, and Extra Source of Income
  • Bank Account with more than 100k Savings

Yes I know, my goals are written in general and those are my top priorities. After you write it down, you still need to create specific steps or actions in achieving each of these goals. 

For example in 'The Salvation of Family Members and Loved Ones'
  • Pray for them every day.
  • Love and do good works with my family members. 
  • Initiative in washing dishes, clothes, cleaning the house.
  • Be generous, responsible, and always practice humility. 

There are long-term and short-term goals, you can still write your own plans now, though it's almost half of the year, it's not yet too late for you! Look, now we have the gift of time. For me, it is important for you to know what would you like to accomplish every year because if you have nothing in mind, I don't know, I may say that you will grab every opportunity that comes your way even though it is not connected to your purpose. Your little steps every day shall direct you in reaching these goals and plans. However, it is said in:

PROVERBS 19:20

    "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."

Whatever it is that you want to achieve in life, do not forget God. Always align your plans to His and always listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit to know His will for you!


6. PUT YOUR TRUST IN GOD, NOT IN MEN NOR TO YOURSELF

Why is it important to trust God above all else? Because He is sovereign and He knows everything. He seeks the motives of the heart of every human being if it is pure and acceptable to God. It is said in:

JEREMIAH 17:5-6

    "Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord. They are like stunted shrubs in the desert, with no hope for the future. They will live in the barren wilderness, in an uninhabited salty land."

We tend to put our trust in other people, our satisfaction, and our own happiness, we used to put it in the hands of a person or even a situation. And when they're gone, we may feel lost, we may suffer. And it's not easy, it'll be hard to adjust and move forward, especially when you put your confidence in something that will not last. 

And it is not wrong to rely on others, in fact, we were taught to love our neighbors as we love ourselves, we were taught to lift up and encourage each other. The only danger in trusting man is when you completely put your dependence on them and you forget about God. 

On the other hand, confidence in one's self may become vain when you add pride and follow the wrong motives of the heart. When your master is your own and you're no longer listening to the voice of God within you. 

FINAL THOUGHTS

Know that whatever it is that you have done. God will never abandon you. He does not blame you for your weaknesses and He wants to bring you back to His original design for man. It is to live in the presence of the Almighty. 

GO BACK.

IF YOU'RE ASTRAY, FIND YOUR WAY BACK TO GOD.

HE'S WAITING FOR YOU. 

WITH ARMS WIDE OPEN.

WHEN YOU FEEL AWKWARD TO SOMEONE 

OVERVIEW


Being awkward means you feel uneasy when someone is around. It is also defined as, "someone who is clumsy or a situation which is uncomfortable." Regardless of the definition, I believe that we all do have experience in an awkward situation. 

When you're too close with someone, you're not really ashamed to say or do anything. I mean, you act natural and everything feels comfortable. You have that mutual affection, that is being free, open, and intimate to someone.

However, in a little while, looks like everything has changed. Without recognizing it, all of a sudden, you feel the awkwardness towards your friend or maybe a family member. There's a feeling of shame holding you back from opening up and interacting, you'd rather stay alone and be silent.

Well, what happened? 

What happened to those little moments you shared and cherished together? What has gone wrong? Do you still remember the good old days, wherein just a glance and you already know what's in his/her mind! That's the gift of friendship, right! And this is not only pertaining to a friend-friend. This applies as well to your siblings, cousins, parents, or anyone near to your heart. 

And how does it feel to be awkward? Not good, right? You're probably missing the days you're chatting in about things and just happily enjoying the relationship, not afraid, not hiding anything, not ashamed.

I've experienced this thing so many times, and believe me, I hate it when I feel so distant from those people who are so close to my heart, our important connections. And sometimes, we don't know how it happened. We are not aware. The reality is, it didn't just happen. 


JOYCE RACHELLE says:

    "It's only awkward if it matters."



HOW TO DEAL WITH AWKWARD FEELINGS 

Do you want your import relationships to be restored? Off course! Before it got worse. Know how to overcome and completely eliminate the 'Awkwardness'! 

There are things that you can do, here's what works best for me:


1. EVALUATE THE SITUATION 

It says that it is only awkward when it matters. So meaning something happened! Try to recall, what did you do? Have you say bad words or offended the other one, or vice versa, maybe you've been hurt or offended. Maybe you're hiding something or you're too proud to admit that things didn't turn out well when you decided to make a decision of your own. 

When you know what's right and you're heading in the wrong direction. It is often accompanied by fear and lack of confidence. The result is awkwardness and being afraid to be vulnerable to someone. You don't want others to see your true colors. Be reminded that, violators of the law will never have peace.

Either it's your fault or not, what important is that you're aware of it. When we're conscious of the root cause, it's much easier to understand and solve the complications.


2. START THE CONVERSATION, HUMBLE YOURSELF

DAVID LEVITHAN says:

    "You’d think that silence would be peaceful. but really, it’s painful."

CORY BASIL says:

    "Sometimes the silence is the loudest thing in the room."


This is very important if you want to restore your important relationships. Even if you didn't do anything wrong. Start the conversation, say sorry, lower your pride. I suppose, at the back of your mind, you can think of the situation when it all started. Apologize and open it up. After you evaluate the circumstances, you can actually think of the solution to the problem. And it all takes courage and humility to talk first. But when you do, you'll be surprised that everything will turn out in your favor. Cause God knows your heart desires, and when we humble ourselves, He backs us up. It is said in:

PROVERBS 28:13-14

  "He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Happy is the man that feareth always: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief."



Confession often leads to reconciliation. It is not easy at first, it'll make you uncomfortable but I guarantee you that it is the right thing to do. Besides, Jesus always teaches us to love our enemies, be humble, and do good to them. It is said in:

PROVERBS 15:1

  "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."


3. BE SINCERE

What does it mean to be sincere? It means being genuine and honest. Have you ever encounter a person who apologizes for a mistake and yet feels like it wasn't real. People know when it's fake. 

I experienced this myself. I tend to say sorry and be mad at the same time. What an insincere person! I know, that sounds not good, but that's the reality. I had an anger issue, pride issue, heart issue, I'm not perfect but I'm delighted that I'm being changed gradually by my Maker day by day. 

CRISS JAMI says:

  "Friends ask you questions; enemies question you."

I agree with this saying! There's a difference between being asked and being questioned. And I believe that when you become truthful to the other person, they will surely appreciate you, regardless of what you did. And even if it not, you'll still experience the peace that surpasses all understanding, God's peace. As it is written:

JOHN 8:32

  "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

PHILIPPIANS 4:7

  "And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."



4. SPEAK YOUR HEART TO GOD, PRAY

And yes, this is the best that we can do. I always include prayers when giving practical advice to my blog. It is just I cannot live without communicating with God. In prayer, we are allowing the Lord to gain control of every situation in our lives. Let's admit it, we cannot do anything apart from Him. And our security is not in other people's hands, our security is in the hands of the one who made us.

Whenever I am awkward to someone. I always take time to pause and evaluate what went wrong. I started to understand the real cause of the misunderstanding. And I pray that the Lord shall restore what had been broken. And the Lord is always faithful to answer my prayers. Because the Lord is the author of relationships, He doesn't want to harm us or destroy our connections. And He is pleased when we pray for others. It is said in:

JOB 42:10

  "When Job prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes, giving him twice as much as before."

PROVERBS 27:9

  "Sweet friendships refresh the soul and awaken our hearts with joy, for good friends are like the anointing oil that yields the fragrant incense of God’s presence."

FINAL THOUGHTS

And if you'll ask me? Do all these things effective? Try for yourself! These are all that I've learned and I was able to overcome that awkwardness. Now, I am so happy celebrating life with my loved ones and friends, not so free from problems but at least I know now what to do when I encounter the same issues again. As the saying goes, "Don't commit the same mistakes twice!"

I cannot guarantee you that you will be free from all the uncomfortable feelings in this world. That's why we have the Bible as the Manual of our Life. Remember that everyone is unique and has its own flaws and beauty. 



SO WHEN YOU FEEL AWKWARD

BE TRUTHFUL, FIRST, TO YOURSELF

AND DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SPEAK UP

WITH A SINCERE AND A GENTLE HEART

THE LORD IS FAITHFUL TO LIFT YOU UP

OVERVIEW

Our mind is a battlefield. There are good and evil thoughts. Every day we have to make a choice and it's up to you! Either we choose to believe and have hope as we open our eyes in the morning or to entertain loneliness and negativities. 

Have you ever feel so lonely about your life? Lonely of losing someone so precious to you that you also forgot how to live happily. I know, that's deep. Or maybe you are discouraged, you're disappointed about yourself, everything you've planned didn't happen the way you wanted it to be. You're not contented with your life now, however, you're thinking that you can't do anything about it. 

Well, you're wrong! You can do something about it! We all have dreams in our hearts. We are all capable if we believe!

C.S. LEWIS says:

    "You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream."

ROY T. BENNETT says:

    "Take responsibility of your own happiness, never put it in other people’s hands."

ROY T. BENNETT says:

    "Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart.”

See! We can still dream and there's still hope. I remember my sister told me once, "The desires in our hearts were given to us by God, and He will make it come to pass, just trust!" We must believe and always choose faith over our fears. It is just a matter of choice and a little more positive thinking. Our dreams will never be too far, we just have to have the right mindset. 

Mind you, too much negativities in our minds can destroy us, our hopes, and dreams, it is stealing our joy. Will you allow that? It is said in:

JOHN 10:10

    "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”

 This verse became very true to me when I experienced an anxiety attack. I was longing for long-gone moments. That nostalgic feeling brought loneliness into my heart. I was so grieved and even entertained by the lies that were echoing in my head. It was shouting saying, "What now? The old days were better, right? You're not going to make it, you can never be happy!" Wow! I entertained the voice in my head and I started to feel so tired, cold that I couldn't move or even breathe. The voice gets louder and louder, saying "Die now! Just die! It is the way out." As darkness covered my body, I see myself looking at the knife. But no! I opposed! I was convicted to get up. I was afraid but suddenly, my authority came back. I fixed myself, I stand up. I prayed.

I believe you could only see stories like these on tv. However, I experienced it myself. I was afraid and that experience changed my life. I saw God's protecting hands over my life and my family. Thanks to the Holy Spirit who's always to the rescue. My best friend. The enemy almost killed me, literally! But God saved me, caress me, picked me up. The enemy wants to take my life, but God wants to give me life and have it in abundance. 


WHAT ARE SIGNS OF ANXIETY ATTACK?

1. It involves both panic and fear.
2. Chest pain, difficulty in breathing.
3. Feeling weak or tired.
4. The person may believe that they are going to die.
5. Irrational thoughts.
6. Trouble concentrating.
7. Thoughts exploding, your mind can't contain it. 

And what is the cause? Too much thinking! Overthinking! Negativities and worries! Just think about it, when you're worried, it means you don't trust God enough. Worries and fear are the by-products of a 'lack of faith.' Don't meditate on your problems. Magnify how great is our God, how big is our God, and how powerful He is. The Lord does not want you lonely. God wants to give you LIFE. Let go and let God.


WAYS TO OVERCOME ANXIETY ATTACK


1. WHEN NEGATIVE THOUGHTS ARE KNOCKING, DON'T ENTERTAIN!

    I believe you already know how to acknowledge negative thoughts, so you can refrain from entertaining them, but if not. Here it is: 


    The voice of the enemy brings conflict or adversary to your mind. It strikes fear, panic, and worries. However, God's voice is so calm, it lifts you up, it gives comfort to our spirit. So the moment, negative thoughts are trying to sneak in, rebuke it in the Name of Jesus. Don't think about it. Don't entertain. Remember, you have the authority, it is one of the benefits of what Jesus did on the cross. The enemy has no hold on you and the chains are gone.


2. SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS TO SOMEONE YOU TRUST

   Why is this important? Because the moment you isolate and keep it all by yourself. Those thoughts might explode on the inside of you, killing your hope, dreams, and even your faith. I believe you heard the saying, "Don't fight your battles alone." Being isolated from the world is the greatest lie the enemy uses to destroy us. Because if you're not listening to others or the Word of God, who will you listen to? That's automatic! The voice of the adversary will attack you when you're all alone and weak. 

     When I experienced that anxiety attack, I told my sister what is exactly going on in my head. And you know what, she encouraged me, she reminded me of who I am in Christ, she took care of me and above and beyond, she prayed for me. 

      If you don't have a sister or brother, you can open up to your cell leader, trusted friends, and parents. After all, those who truly love you will understand. 



ECCLESIASTES 4:9-10

    "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor. For if one falls down, his companion can lift him up; but pity the one who falls without another to help him up!”


3. SURRENDER YOUR THOUGHTS TO GOD IN PRAYER

   No one could ever understand your situation than your Maker. Ask the Lord to take over, take captives of your thoughts. Run to the Father, kneel down, bow down, and cried out for help. You can say whatever you want to say to Him, surely He will listen. Ask the Lord to protect you from the evil one. As you pray, you will move the hands of God. Rest assured that you're safe with God. Your assurance is in:

ISAIAH 41:10

    "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." 


4. GUARD YOUR EYES AND EARS

   After the anxiety attack that I've experienced, I fast. Fasting means giving up fleshly desires. For me, it is avoiding television for one week or more until my soul desire. I remember, before it happened, I've been watching a Korean Drama fantasy-love story straight for one week. Little did I know, I was so drawn to it that stirs up strong emotions and imaginations. According to:

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: 

    "Your eyes are the window to your soul." 

PROVERBS 4:23

    "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it."

    Believe me, no one can protect your eyes or ears from the negativities of this world but yourself. If you keep your eyes focused on the news, or what's trending on social media, you might be distracted from your purpose. It may cause addiction or worst, obsession. Whatever we hear or see influences our thoughts.



    However I'm not saying it is bad to watch tv or use social media, it is how you will handle it. After all, I believe you can discern what's right from good, now, right? Remember! It is your responsibility to guard your heart!


5. READ ENCOURAGING ARTICLES/BLOGS/EBOOKS, MOST IMPORTANTLY "THE WORD OF GOD"

   Why did I add this to the list? I mean that 'reading'. If you are not fond of reading you may want to skip this one. But this is one way of keeping yourself busy while gaining wisdom. Fill your minds with the truth, and the truth is the Word of God.

    I promise you, this really helps! Especially when your thoughts keep coming back and like thunders resounding in your head. As for me, I've read the ebook entitled "JUST ONE DROP OF THE BLOOD OF JESUS" by Pastor Cesar Castellanos. That time, I was so desperate for peace of mind, really! As I read the book, I felt that it was really made just for me! It saved my life. Not the book itself but the Blood of Jesus that was shed from the cross. From there, I realized that the truth of God's Word was stolen from me. I understood that the redemption that Jesus did on the cross is complete and the enemy has no hold on me. 

    We all have different ways of how we can keep ourselves busy. But reading a good book is not going to harm you. In fact, 10-15 minutes a day and you'll gain a lot of wisdom. Moreover, where can we really get wisdom and understanding? Yes, you know the answer, from God. Besides the Bible is the Word of God, and the Word of God is the final authority of our lives!

PROVERBS 2:6 

   "For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding." 

PROVERBS 3:13

   "Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding." 



6. LISTEN TO WORSHIP SONGS

     Instead of worrying, why not create an atmosphere of worship. Instead of listening to heartbreaking lonely love songs on your phone, why not listen to uplifting and joyful songs. A song of praise that will remind you that God is bigger than your problems, He's even bigger than all that you're going through. 

    I know, I've been there, as I was listening to sad songs, break up songs, emo songs, I felt so emotional that I am deeply feeling the pain. Why do people always want to torment themselves? Before I don't have any idea, it just feels right, right? But now I understand that it's just a trap the enemy uses to demotivate us and play with our own feelings and emotions. So I tell you, open your phone and turn on the music that will comfort you, encourage you, and remind you that our Maker is in control.


7. BE CONSISTENT AND STAY POSITIVE

   And as you learn how to overcome anxiety, be consistent day after day. It's a battle! Don't look back, don't doubt, continue to believe, pray, and nurture yourself. Nonetheless, if you entertain the thoughts again, it might knock you down this time, you'll never know. So govern your thoughts and seek God's wisdom. It is said in: 

PROVERBS 2:2-5

    "If you incline your ear to wisdom and direct your heart to understanding, If you truly call out to insight and lift your voice to understanding, if you seek it like silver and search it out like hidden treasure, then you will discern the fear of the LORD and discover the knowledge of God." 

    The wisdom from the Lord shall direct our paths. So now, choose to be positive and be consistent! You're already victorious in Christ Jesus. Amen!

PHILIPPIANS 4:8

    ""Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things."" 

FINAL THOUGHTS

Anyone can experience anxiety. That doesn't mean you're exempted whether you're a psychologist, a doctor, or even a Christian.  That's why it is important to guard your thoughts and your heart always. 

You may be battling with depression now. I say, do not be afraid. Your life is in God's hands. You can recover! I've been there!

Know that anxiety can be overcome. You must, however, be determined to fight and not give up. There is hope as long as there is a ray of light shining in the midst of the darkness.

Always look on the bright side even if you aren't seeing it yet. Keep the faith and persevere! 

With God's help and the people around you, you can overcome anxiety!


REMEMBER: 

JESUS DID NOT DIE ON THE CROSS SO WE COULD ONLY LIVE A DEFEATED LIFE.

YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY, GOVERN YOUR THOUGHTS!

FILL IT WITH HOPE, LOVE, AND POSITIVITY.

LISTEN TO THE TRUTH.

AND THE TRUTH IS HIM, GOD.
