I laid there, eyes closed, and waited. Waited for what, no idea but I waited.
I proceeded to question myself. "Am I anxious today?" Will I come in contact with someone, who's anxious or suffer from anxiety?"
I haven't thought of this word in a while. Even though I haven't thought of this word in a while, it was not unfamiliar to me. I'm so familiar with this word that I can literally write a book.
As I reflected in this word, and even though I should be anxious and choose not to be, I started looking to God for answers. I waited, waited and continued to wait and hesrd nothing.
I got up and went live on my phone. Then it happened. I have many people who joined me on the live and usually they would ask me, what are we discussing today or what's the topic? I proceeded to ask them what they would love to discuss. So obviously they can hear me and I have to read out what they type in thr comment section.
Believe it or not, many of them typed the word "anxious" Some of them confessed that they are anxious all the time. Then I knew, there is a massive wave of anxiety here and it's only gonna get worse if we don't have it eliminated. People are struggling, lives are taken because of major depression and the enemy's loving it.
I opened my Bible and also had to bare in mind that not everyone believes the word of God or trust a person wanting to help.
Anyway, the very first scripture I read said,
"Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, but a good word makes it glad." Proverbs 12:26
As I continued to read their comments I just had to ask, "why are you anxious?"
I thought the answer would be financial difficulty or marriage problems but that wasn't the big answer. The big answer was, "judgement from others, bullying" (and this grown-ups feeling this way), and the worst thing, "loneliness"
Can you imagine if this is adults feeling this way, how are the young people dealing with all of this?
People, there are soblittle kindness and empathy shown in this world and that is a massive problem.
Guilt is unnecessary placed on people. They feeling they're drawing and you’re seeking attention.
How can we change this?
Can we be present?
