Simple Suggestions to be Rid of Anxiety

Simple Suggestions to be Rid of Anxiety

“Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Luke 12:32-34).

To all who wish to be rid of anxiety-

I would make three simple suggestions:

First-

Stop seeking the trivial, transient things with which modern men and women glut themselves, and seek the Kingdom of God as it is revealed in Christ.

Let God’s life surge through your soul as you, by faith, put the whole weight of your burdens on Jesus Christ, who died for you.

Second-

Get your eyes off yourself.

Focus them upon God first, and then others.

Self-centeredness is a terrible breeder of anxiety.

Spend much time in prayer, and let a large portion of this time be spent in praying for others.

Third-

Commit yourself fully to Christ.

The truly happy Christian is the one who is fully and wholeheartedly committed to Christ.

Be that kind of follower of Christ!
