The fundamental reason why people experience anxiety is…🤔
It's because they haven't achieved "reconciliation with God."

All humans are born having sinned against God, living with their backs turned to Him…
The Bible calls a broken or severed relationship with God…
Such sin robs us of peace from our hearts,
and allows anxiety and fear to creep in.

…“The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace.”
Romans 8:6.

…If you turn your back on the sun🌞, you will only see your own shadow stretching from your feet.

You will be forced to focus only on past mistakes, failures, and sins, and as a result,
you may suffer from regret, pangs of conscience, self-reproach, and self-loathing.

…A villain is…🤔
Someone who does not return to God…

…When we sincerely repent to God, our relationship with God becomes…
peace!

…Even as Christians, we still make sins, transgressions, and mistakes.

At those times…we lose our peace! 😱

…We constantly repent, and through that, we return to God!

…Repentance is…the lifeline of a Christian!

And it is grace.

Shalom 😃
