How I Defeated Worry

With God’s Help

I used to worry myself into panic attacks, thinking about my circumstances, my future, hating the kind of person I was. I’d beg God to help me. But I’d never listen or wait long enough, I never put my stress in His capable hands.

I knew He was faithful, I believed He could change everything, but I didn’t know how to ‘cast my cares’. I didn’t know how to let go of all my worries so He could handle them. I didn’t know I was supposed to let go of them!

1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.

NIV

He finally got through by leading me to Joyce Meyer’s book ‘Battlefield of the Mind’. I’ve read it half a dozen times. It has helped me so much. God has shown me, through scripture and through Joyce’s books how to let go and how to find my balance, peace, and joy separate from my circumstances.

John 10:10(b) “I came that they may have life, and have it to the full”

NIV
