Romans 8:5-6

Chapter 8 of Romans is titled, “Life by the Spirit”. That is the key to living an anxiety free life! People who aren’t Christian followers live by their sinful nature. So many negative thoughts and emotional issues can dominate your life when Jesus isn't a part of it.

If Jesus is your Savior, then you have the Holy Spirit in you and you should let Him lead. He will help us think about good things. Not only that, but living His way leads to life AND peace. Peace can dwell in your life because you aren’t constantly bombarded with thoughts you shouldn’t be thinking.

To me, these verses in Romans are a part example of how we should live. The Holy Spirit knows what’s best for us, has good things we can grow through, and brings us life and peace. That sounds much better than the alternative.

Tomorrow we will pick our own verse. Is there one about anxiety that I didn’t use that helps you? I can’t wait to hear about it!
