All in all, we know what it\u2019s like for some unknown emotions to make their way into our life.<\/p>\n<p>And try to steal our JOY.<\/p>\n<p>*kinda a spoiler*<\/p>\n<p>But in the movie, anxiety comes and takes over Riley\u2019s joy, which Joy had ultimately run her life the past 13 years. Anxiety didn\u2019t come alone though\u2026 it also brought envy, embarrassment and boredom. Woah. Nothing too positive or fun.<\/p>\n<p>As someone who struggles with anxiety, I related to a lot of this!<\/p>\n<p>When anxiety takes over, most things seem to crumble. Riley loses her confidence, and pretty much tries to do anything and everything possible to BE ACCEPTED.<\/p>\n<p>Anxiety will make you believe things about yourself that aren\u2019t true.<\/p>\n<p>Anxiety will make you believe you aren\u2019t satisfied or you\u2019re weak\u2026 pretty much all things negative.<\/p>\n<p>You have to be ______ to be accepted and liked.<\/p>\n<p>You have to be good at ______ to be cool.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-229795 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/truth-to-overcome-anxietys-lies\/alliewalker-4\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2160\" height=\"3840\" src=\"https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-4.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-4.png 2160w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-4-1280x2276.png 1280w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-4-980x1742.png 980w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-4-480x853.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 2160px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/truth-to-overcome-anxietys-lies\/alliewalker\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2160\" height=\"3840\" src=\"https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker.png 2160w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-1280x2276.png 1280w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-980x1742.png 980w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-480x853.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 2160px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/truth-to-overcome-anxietys-lies\/alliewalker-3\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2160\" height=\"3840\" src=\"https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-3.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-3.png 2160w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-3-1280x2276.png 1280w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-3-980x1742.png 980w, https:\/\/liveoriginal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/AllieWalker-3-480x853.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 2160px, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The list goes on!<\/p>\n<p>Anxiety places meaningless \u201cwhat ifs\u201d on your hopeful future that is already secured by the Almighty!<\/p>\n<p>Today, let\u2019s embrace TRUTHS God has spoken over our lives that we are safe and not defined by anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>You are not alone in your struggle with anxiety. The Lord meets you there and delivers you from all your fears. He can use anything for His glory!<\/p>\n<p>Here are 3 lies anxiety wants us to believe to be true about us\u2026 and TRUTH that overcomes it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#1: Anxiety keeps you in CONTROL<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anxiety promises to prepare us for the worst. If we constantly live through everything that could happen, we\u2019ll be ready if\/when it does\u2026right? But that is a a false sense of security. Anxiety doesn\u2019t prepare us for the future; it only robs us of joy in our present life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Truth:<\/strong> \u201cWho of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life? But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.\u201d Matthew 6:27<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2: Anxiety claims your IDENTITY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anxiety wants you to believe that this is who you are \u2014 You are an anxious person and you always will be. But the gospel gives us one TRUE identity: Jesus. When God looks at you, He sees His Son. His righteousness is yours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Truth:<\/strong> <em>\u201cTherefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature. The old things passed away; behold, new things have come.\u201d<\/em> (2 Corinthians 5:17)<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3: Anxiety leads to PEACE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anxiety promises that if we ponder over the scary \u201cwhat ifs\u201d or if we constantly relive every past hurt, we will eventually come to some sort of satisfying conclusion. That\u2019s a winless battle.<\/p>\n<p>There are some questions, some \u201cwhat-if\u2019s,\u201d that we cannot resolve this side of Heaven. Peace comes from looking at our perfect savior, not at our circumstances.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Truth:<\/strong><em> \u201cPeace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.\u201d<\/em> (John 14:27)<\/p>\n<p>John 15:11 says, <em>\u201cThese things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>LOVE,<br \/>\nAW<\/p>\n<p><em>Allie Walker is an Ambassador for our LO Sister App and this is a sneak peek at the encouragement you&#8217;ll find daily in the app. There are countless girls like Allie waiting to pour into you, friend.
