In My Anxiety, He Calls Me Beloved

Find the link-up party at The Gypsy Mama!

 
 
You’re not good enough.

You’re letting people down.

Who could you ever help?

 

The evil one’s lies curl me into myself and then I hear Him...

 

Beloved, you are Mine.

 

When I look in the mirror, dissatisfied with all I see…

 

Beloved, I have created you in My image.

 

When I cry over a bad day or a bad decision…

 

Beloved, I am here for you.

 

When I lose my temper with my husband or my daughter…

 

Beloved, you are forgiven.

 

When there are 36 hours of things to do in a 24 hour time span…

 

Beloved, rest in Me.

 

When I cannot take the difficulties of this world, when it’s too overwhelming, when the anxiety and depression are taking over my body, mind, and soul…

 

Father You pull me back from the precipice, with one simple word…

 

Beloved…

 

Beloved, I am here.  Beloved, rest in Me.  Beloved, I will never forsake you.  Beloved, you are My special child.  Beloved, trust Me.  Beloved, you are Mine.

  4. I am in the dark places, and that old liar is whispering in my ear too, whipping me up into panic and depression and anxiety. But God's voice is still louder, and though He hasn't chosen to light up my dark yet, His voice is tender. We are the Beloved. Hold to that like you are, my sister! (came over from FMF)
