Prayers for me, please

[HD3484]

Good morning. I've been a follower of Christ for about four years now. I grew up in church and always believed, but didn't have a relationship with the Lord until I opened up my Bible and fell in love with Jesus.

I struggle with anxiety. I've been to the Anxiety forum here and they've been great! But I'm hoping I can ask you all for prayers. I'm always stuck in a stronghold of fear. I'm always scared something bad is going to happen...whether it be worried about my heart, my kids, or my newest fear, "What if I develop a horrible mental illness and end up in an institution." I'm tired of always being stuck in a rut of fear. I'm in the Word daily, and Jesus says not to fear. I worry that I don't trust the Lord enough, or else I wouldn't be so fearful all the time. Please pray for me. The Lord has been so good to me, and I really want to be able to be useful to Him, but feel I can't until I stop fearing everything! Thank you!

I struggled with anxiety for years too. It went away slowly as I served God. Took years though so hang in there

The more you focus on helping others, the less your symptoms will be.

Thank you, all! I love helping others....I believe God gave me a heart to serve, and I do. I feel like I’m letting Him down. I’m so tired of all the fear and “what if’s.” I’m holding on to His promises, especially in Jeremiah 29:11. I love Him so much and want to get throug this trial and truly enjoy this life He gave me.

1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

One thing I can guarantee you friend is that God will never fail you. Even though we often fail Him with our thoughts and actions, He will never leave nor forsake you.
If you are a born again child of God, You belong to the body and saved eternally. So do not let satan deceive you with fleshly fear.

Right. But each hour spent helping, is an hour of lowered anxiety.
24 hours of thinking on the benefit of others is 24 hours of less worry.
That's why God recommends constant prayer.
