I woke up this morning with extreme anxiety. Maybe you’ve been there?

If THE121 has taught me anything it’s that God calls us to complete and absolute surrender. He wants ALL of us. My issue is often that I “think” I surrender and yet…I pick it back up again.

I tell God “whatever you want God” then anxiety rears it’s ugly head and I worry and panic. As a trained counselor I teach thought stopping all day. So as anxiety threatened to overtake me today, I reminded myself of the truth. Philippians 4:6 immediately was brought to mind.

DON’T WORRY. STOP. TALK TO GOD ABOUT IT. As I sat with this verse I did just that. I laid THE121 back to the feet of Jesus.

The best news? God got the victory!

I knew this would be a big week for THE121 and myself personally. This would be the week I would either hear yes or no.

I’m not quite ready to make an announcement yet but God is on the move and doing a work.

I am sure I am not the only person who battles anxiety. I am sure I am not the only person who wants to hold tightly when God says “surrender.” I can encourage you in this… Scripture is alive and active. When we apply it to our lives, Satan is defeated.
