19 Bible Verses for Managing Holiday Anxiety – The Intertwined Life Podcast, Ep: 20
Does the thought of “home for the holidays” sometimes conjure up more anxiety than warm-fuzzies? If you are heading into this season with slightly more trepidation than comfort and joy this episode is for you! Here you will find 19 Bible verses for managing holiday anxiety. Plus, a list of positive confessions, based on scripture which you can use to reset and renew your mind as we go into special season.
So often this time of year I hear horror stories and watch as fear and anxiety cripple so many strong, beautiful Christian women. Does something inside you threaten to revert back to that insecure, middle school girl when faced with the ones who witnessed those fateful times in your life? Me too! But, sister…We can fight this!
If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, the very same God who raised Him from the dead lives on the inside of you, and you can walk in that power each and every moment. No circumstances, no feelings, and no past hurts have the right to take you under their control because you are a woman of God. You do not have to bow down to the old chains the enemy is trying to ensnare you with.
