Got Anxiety?

And why do you worry about clothes? Consider how the lilies of the field grow: They do not labor or spin. / Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these. / If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Matthew 6:28-30

Book Recommendation

Consider the Lilies: Finding Perfect Peace in the Character of God, by Jonny Ardavanis

I don’t usually recommend books (at least not on my blog, if you know me personally, you would cry foul at that statement!), but this book is a stand-out exception!

Truth be told, our *oldest son recommended it several months ago, but I waited for the free edition to be available in audio form on Hoopla (I am a bit frugal). Also, the cover seemed… I don’t know… uninviting? So, I guess I did judge a book by it’s cover. Don’t make the same mistake!

If you’re breathing, you have to one degree or another, struggled with some form of anxiety. Even as followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, we are not immune to its clutches and downward spiral. The answers are found in God’s Word; and this author lays out a Biblical and uniquely woven description concerning dealing with anxiety. All derived from Scripture. I encourage you to check it out, read a sample online, etc.

“The peace of God does not fall into our laps as we sit and wait for it but rather is given by God to those who fix their minds on and fill their hearts with God’s matchless and unchanging character.” (Italics not added) – Jonny Ardavanis

Thank you, Aaron! I love you sweetheart!
