Do worries ever consume your thoughts, even keeping you awake at night? You’re not alone. At Desert Springs Church, we know worry can feel overwhelming—but there’s a powerful, practical solution found in God’s Word.

God’s Remedy for Worry

The Bible offers clear guidance for overcoming worry:

• “Cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you.” – 1 Peter 5:7

This scripture reminds us that God genuinely cares about our anxieties and troubles. The best way to deal with worry is to bring it directly to Him.

When worry strikes, take these simple but powerful steps:

1. Immediately turn to prayer:

   • Tell God exactly how you’re feeling.

   • Clearly express your concerns to Him.

2. Let go and trust God:

   • Literally cast your worries onto God.

   • Allow Him to take charge, trusting He will handle your situation.

3. Thank God in advance:

   • Recognize and express gratitude for God’s faithfulness and His ongoing support.

   • A thankful heart reduces anxiety and builds faith.

Trusting God Brings Stability

• To stabilize your heart and mind.

• To intervene in ways you cannot imagine.

When you entrust your concerns to God, you replace anxiety with peace.
