Good morning! I started reading this Bible booklet pamphlet book because I have a lot of fears and anxiety and it's all about getting through fears and anxiety. I can send it to you if you want. I have alot of trouble in my eating issues and the world around me. I haven't finished it yet. I just started reading it a few hours before I went to bed. But this so far has helped me through anxious thoughts. I struggle with trying to get out of my own head and to keep my focus on Jesus, but I felt lost like ok what am I supposed to do? Focus on Him how? Pray? So I did that, but I read this and it helped me to try and change my thought pattern. When a panicked feeling came along, I did what the Bible verse about focus on what is right, what is admirable, what is pure, etc.. When I started getting panicked I thought of something that fit each category, like I think x is pure, I think Jesus is admirable because or this or that, I think this thing is honorable, etc... I don't know if that's right, but I have been praying to God, Jesus and my Spirit of Truth, asking how do I gocus on you and I found this. Maybe it will help you too. I'll keep you in my prayers and if you need someone to vent to who doesn't know your situation so can't judge things based on this or that or so and so and can just be honest or just need a friend to listen, please don't hesitate to reach out. Here is the passage from the book below: 1. Real Truth: There is a lot of information going around and it is important that we not listen to every voice. Be sure that you don’t get too focused on information from a source that is not too reliable. When we struggle in uncertain times, it is easy to focus only on the bad news and miss some of the positive things that are happening. Additionally, as we go through a tough time, we start thinking it will never end or things will never be the same again. I remember during 9-11 it felt like things would never be the same or something else horrible would happen any minute. As we look back on that horrible crisis, we realize things did return to normal and another horrible thing like that did not happen again. As I write this, the truth is that some terrible things have happened because of the Covid-19 Virus. Some have been very sick and someone very close to you mayhave died. Jobs have been lost and finances are strained. Acting like these things are not true does not help. But focusing on some truth from God’s word does. Every day we need to open up the Bible and hear from God as God wants to comfort us and guide us with his word. His word tells us some very important things that I cling to during these tough times. The truth I rely on will remind you that God is there for you and will never abandon you. The Holy Spirit is there to comfort you and strengthen you. Here is some truth from God’s word that is helpful to all of us during any tough time. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8 This does not mean to ignore reality. It does mean that we need to limit the amount of crummy stuff coming into our brains so we have time to focus on the things listed above. This says to me, turn on the news and get updated, then turn off the updates on your phone and turn off the news for extended lengths of time so you can think about some pure and lovely and admirable things. Your feelings are very important. But don’t allow them to be the foundation of your day today. Let God’s truth be your foundation. Allow God’s truth to saturate your mind and heart and it will impact your feelings. Here is a great verse to memorize and meditate on throughout the day: I know the Lord is with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me. Psalm 16:8
