When Curt Bizelli asked me to write a follow up article on anxiety my response was I can share my experience with anxiety, but I can’t tell someone how to overcome it, if I’m still struggling with it. This is not something I have perfected, but something that I can say I’ve experienced and I’m here to give encouragement to you.

Everyone at some point in their life has experienced an anxious feeling. Some may get anxious about a test they have coming up or maybe a job interview. There are some who may have experienced anxiety to the extreme. They may have been diagnosed with or have experienced symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) or even Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD). Others may have struggled with anxiety/ panic attacks.

I have experienced anxiety to the extreme and it’s still a weak area in my life. I’ve struggled with obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, social anxiety and anxiety/panic attacks. I started noticing compulsive behaviors/obsessive thoughts in myself in college. I noticed at home I would keep repeating tasks because of the anxious feeling I had and I wanted the ease from the feeling. The obsessive thoughts I’ve experienced turned into anxiety and panic attacks.

In the summer of 2008 was a very difficult time for me. I was struggling with both depression and anxiety. I thought I was going crazy. The obsessive thoughts and depression was causing me to have emotional breakdowns at home where I kept crying. I’ve been to Christian counseling and to the doctor before about what I had been experiencing. At one point I thought something was wrong with my heart, but now I know it was the attacks that were happening to me.

I believe there is still hope for anyone experiencing these things. There is a true living God that brings hope to us no matter what the situation is. God can speak peace to your mind and your life no matter the confusion that is going on within. It’s important that each and every one of us have a relationship with Jesus. He is the only one that can keep us from falling apart completely. If you feel like you are at your lowest Jesus is the only one that can truly pick you back up and bring healing and deliverance to you. Our healing and deliverance from the anxiety can only come from God. We must pray to God letting Him know our heart’s cry. God wants to hear from us, He doesn’t want us to turn away from Him, but turn to Him because He is the only one that can bring us through.

Also, reading and studying the Word is important during this challenge. We can look up scriptures on worry, anxious, healing and peace etc and meditate on them. It may seem like this is the end and things can’t get better, but I encourage you to hang in there and draw near to God. God is able and willing to heal and deliver, but we have to trust Him no matter how things look.

Scriptures To Read:
2 Timothy 1: 7
Philippians 4: 6
Isaiah 53: 5
God bless you!

I Can Do ALL THINGS Through Christ Whom Strengthens Me … God Will Grant You The Desires of Your Heart … but you Must Do Your Part!

“I can do all things through Christ whom Strengthens me”

Good Morning Friends,

I wanted to give another update of hope & encouragement. As some of you know, I fell back into some old, bad habits … yet God delivered me yet again! Isn’t that great? Knowing that no matter what we do, no matter how short we fall compared to the Glory of God, He will ALWAYS, never fail in accepting us as we are.

I have an important message for you this morning. Just like the scripture says above, All things are possible with God. In our own flesh we fall short, are sinners and are not capable of all things, but when we turn to a higher power which is something so much greater than ourselves and hand over our will, our wants and our desires … He will bless us beyond belief. He will make us capable. He will wash away the sins and He will even give your desires back to you. YES! It also states in biblical scripture, “I shall be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him in the next” … it also states (look these up on www.BibleGateway.com so you know these are from The Lord). It also states, “Delight yourself also in the Lord and He will grant you the desires of your heart.” He doesn’t say needs. That is a given! He is like a dad except so much greater. He cares for His children. That’s why we calle Him the Heavenly Father.

Yes! He wants us to be happy, He wants our DESIRES to be met, but just like a FATHER, He ultimately wants the best for us. Sometimes your will doesn’t align with what He wants for your life (and doesn’t the parent always win)

My calling in life (and you could call it a Supreme Mission Statement) is to make a difference by assisting you finding your God given purpose in Life. No matter whether I call myself a Publicist or a “movie junkie’” … one thing will always be infinite and come first, and if you’ve accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord & Savior, the same goes for you. I AM A CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH GOD!

This phrase coined by the notorious Joel Osteen (even though I do not agree with all of his ways) has helped me through so many troubles in my life. It makes me think of the scripture that states, “If God be for me, who shall be against me” … Understand the power of God, my friends. I yearn to get to know Him more and more everyday, and I urge you to “consider” doing the same.

BUT REMEMBER: God is not there to give you everything you want even though that’s what your beliefs aka Law of Attraction, etc. might state. Like I said before, HE WILL! but just like scripture states, you must FIRST delight yourself in HIM.

God is more than a Genie.

God is “more than everything” …

He said say, “I Am sent you for I am the God of your ancestors, The God of Isaac, The God of Jacob, The God of Abraham. I am Who Was, Who Is and Always Will Be” – The Alpha, The Omega, The Beginning and Thee End.

You can leave a comment if you like, but my main call to action for you this morning is to find yourself not in this world which includes yourself, but in Him (God) who is far greater than you could ever imagine.

Be blessed my friends, and remember I’m offering the podium on this blog to anybody who would like to Guest Post. I’m falling short in my duties here due to much business. Feel free to “chip in”, contact me and arrange a guest post on ANY topic you can find on this blog.

Good Morning Friends,

There’s enough time for everybody to share on my platform and you’re guaranteed to “at least” get one PR3 backlink to your own blog or website, much public exposure and syndication.

Its time as a community that we stand up together and start sharing some more valuable information here on Manifest Your Dreams BIZ. Everybody does it! All the top leaders … it may even be one of the secrets to success … and that is “outsourcing” … C’mon, its a “win win” situation. You get to share valuable content, receive public exposure as well as receive a backlink. Most importantly, you’ll be keeping something alive. You’ll be keeping the spirit of “Manifest Your Dreams BIZ” alive. Let’s not let it go by the waste side.

I respect my brother’s great ideas, therefore instead of sharing your dream, you’ll be sharing proven wisdom related to things you’re passionate about. Just take a look at the long list of categories this blog has covered over the past couple of years and you’ll get an idea of what you may write about.
