Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when my anxiety is becoming a sin?+
Anxiety becomes a sin when we let it lead us to panic, worry, or doubt God's sovereignty. Remember, God is always with you, and He gives you the strength to trust in Him, as we read in Philippians 4:13 (NIV).
What does the Bible say about praying for peace?+
In Philippians 4:6 (ESV), Paul instructs us to "not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.'
Can my anxiety be used for good?+
Even in the midst of anxiety, God can use your struggles for His glory and your growth. As Romans 8:28 says, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.'
