(Since I've been challenged by a friend to post inspirational Bible Verse for 14 Days, I decided to indulge deep into God's Word I'd be sharing and post it here. Here is my fifth entry.)
"Hindi ba kita inutusan? Ikaw ay magpakalakas at magpakatapang na mabuti; huwag kang matakot, ni manglupaypay: sapagka't ang Panginoon mong Dios ay sumasa iyo saan ka man pumaroon."
(Josue 1:9)
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed. For the LORD your God [is] with you in all places where you go."
(Joshua 1:9)
NOTHING TO FEAR
This verse should be written in our hearts and minds. So the moment fear starts to bother us, we have a strong reminder who is with us. Fear is always around the corner of our minds, that's why we must have a weapon against it. People with anxiety know exactly what I'm talking about. And if you can't relate to this, at least know this for the sake of someone you know who has.
According to the data, 40M Adult in US alone suffers from anxiety and only almost 37% of it receive treatment. Most of them fight this battle alone. And if we will based it on this data, there is a high probability that you know someone who is battling with anxiety, not to mention depression. And am telling you, knowing and sharing them things that could help their battle is also a treatment. Them, knowing that someone is there for them in their battle, most of the time ease their anxiety.
It maybe a long process before they fully conquer anxiety or maybe they wont. Just continue to be there, like how God is to them. They need to be reminded always of that -- that God is with them always, nothing to fear.
See you on my next photo blog. Shalom!
