Practical Bible Advice on Dealing With Anxiety

 The Bible contains a wealth of reliable advice that can help us when we are anxious. Consider three examples.

1. "Never be anxious about the next day, for the next day has its own troubles." - MATTHEW 6:34. 

Meaning:  We are wise to avoid excessive worry about what may (or may not) happen in the future. Oftentimes, things do not turn our the way we fear they will. In some cases things even unexpectedly change for the better. 

Try this: Recall times in the past when you were certain that something bad would happen-but it did not. Then evaluate your current worries, trying to be as realistic as possible about how likely they are to become major issues.
