Because I am an open book and know many of you struggle with anxiety/panic I want to share my story. After all my medical issues last year and getting my ferritin levels normal through blood transfusions and iron infusions and surgery – I was healed. It was one of the scariest times of my life. Unfortunately, two weeks ago the anxiety came back – not with the severity as before but enough to be extremely uncomfortable. I have had many of my prayer warriors praying for me and finally over the weekend as Jamie and I sought wisdom from God it was very clear for me to start cognitive behavioral therapy! I got a book and started researching it and as scary as it seems I know God will give me everything I need! I know many don’t like to talk about Satan and what he can do, but I am certain Satan is not very happy with us. Jamie and I spend many hours in God’s word and praying and we have been fasting more than ever to seek God’s wisdom on many things in our lives. I know for that reason, we are under attack. The good news is, the battle has already been won – THANK YOU JESUS!
Even though we know that, your Prayers are appreciated as I start CBT on Tuesday – the counselor is supposed to be amazing 🙂 Thanks in advance everyone for your continued prayers for me and our family. No matter how much Satan attacks us, we will continue to be obedient to God and continue serving whomever God sends our way. If you struggle with anxiety/panic know you are NOT alone – it is not fun. Many do not like to talk about it as there is such a stigma, but I figure if I can encourage even one of you then being completely transparent and exposing myself is what God wants me to do and I will be obedient. We are ALL broken, yes, even us Christians and by the grace and love of Jesus he puts us back together. If any of you struggle with this I would be honored to pray for you as well. There is no shame in saying we are weak BUT He is strong – not by my strength but by HIS. Love you all and thank you for your prayers!!!
