I have always struggled with anxiety. I used to say that i suffered from it but i have come to realize that it is more of a faith based problem than anything else. When you struggle with anxiety you are really lacking in belief that God has your best interest in mind. You feel like by some human power you'll be able to influence your situations and make yourself feel more in control. God calls us to give up our control and rely on him to provide for our every need. Although i have been raised with this mindset my humanly efforts often times take over and I try to plan each and every step.
There is such freedom that comes from giving your control to someone who loves you more than you could ever imagine. He will not lead you down the wrong path and will always know what is in your best interest. When you try and control things you may not understand that what is best is not what you would have thought. I am looking at colleges to transfer to and I would like to go somewhere that im comfortable. Although this is my desire i feel like God is taking me other places. This requires me to give up my own wants and lay them down to him no matter where that is, he will be faithful.
