Your fears, anxieties, and other problems have the best of you
and you don’t know where to turn for help. At some point you feel
totally helpless as you struggle each day. As a layman and an
author of a Managing Fear book, there were times that my fears
had the best of me. One of the things that I’ve learned is that
you can have all the money in the world and be well known by many
people, but when it comes down to it, none of it matters when it
comes to dealing with your persistent fears and anxieties. Fame,
money, and success will not take away your fears.
The one source that a person should use as a basis in managing
their fears and anxieties is using God/Jesus as a basis in
dealing with their fears. Why? The power of God is the one power
that is stronger than your fears and anxieties. Also, God loves
each one of us and he is the one person who has the power to
solve all of our problems. He will help you if you ask him to.
The first step a person should do in dealing with their fears is
to start talking and praying to God. A person can go to church or
to a quiet place during the day to tell God that they are having
a problem. They should tell God how they feel and ask God for
some of his help. A person could also review the Bible and read
some articles on trusting in God and then apply these concepts in
their life. Each and every day, a person should make it up a
habit to talk to God and ask him for his help.
Some people think that the answers that God provides must be
religious in nature. That is not always the case. God may provide
the answers in a way that might not be religious in nature. These
answers could involve basic psychology and cognitive techniques
that deals with how to manage fear and anxiety. The point to
remember is that although a person may use these psychology
methods, its important to use God/Jesus as the center of
everything in your life and in your struggle.
If you have trouble, talk to a member of the clergy or a
professional counselor to help deal with your fears and
anxieties.
As a layman, I realize the most important thing is to continue
praying and talking to God. Talk to God as if you were talking to
a friend. Read the Bible and pray hard. Be persistent and be open
in the avenues that God may provide to you in solving your
problem. It is not always easy, however God is in control and he
will help you if you ask him.
