What is anxiety?

What is anxiety? The word is used a lot these days.

I read a statistic that over 31% of American adults experience an anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. That's a lot of people.

The word itself means distress or uneasiness of mind caused by fear or danger, or misfortune.

This is a real thing. Anxiety is something that can be debilitating. But there is someone who is bigger than your anxiety.

There is one who is stronger than your fear.

1 Peter reminds us, cast your anxiety on him.

Why? Because He cares for you. He is able to take it and He is the one who cares for you.

“There is one who is stronger than your fear.”
