Well, we’ve learned a little bit about anxiety. We’ve learned how overcoming it can affect our lives, the lives of those close to us, but what about the rest of the world?
Every day, we’re going to meet challenges that test our courage and our strength. When we accomplish one challenge, we may be given another.
I believe in God and I know that He is good. He has helped me grow through so many trials and has helped me become better because of them. I know that believing in Him and following Him doesn’t get rid of the anxieties I have to face, the anxieties we have to face, but there is so much hope and power that comes through having a good relationship with Him. One quote I love and that demonstrates this point, is: “The Lord doesn’t make it easy, but He makes it possible.” (Opposition In All Things, Elder Dallin H. Oaks, 2016). It’s super simple, and to the point. If you too believe in God, lean into Him and trust that He will help you. As I’ve done this, I’ve found it to be undeniably true.
For those of you who may not believe in God or believe in one different to being loving, kind, and wanting the best for you, I encourage you to find a great source of good to empower you. It could be the feeling of love that is expressed in many different ways between the relationships you have with people. It could be the desire you have deep down inside of wanting to be your best self. Whatever it is, having that anchor is super important (and I might add critical) to this process of overcoming the many anxieties you face in your life.
No matter what you may face, know that you can overcome it! If you want to bad enough, you will do it!
