Overcoming Fear with Faith: 5 Practical Tips To Let Go & Let God
Fear used to be my go-to emotion in any situation. I wasn’t always like that but over time, the devil assisted me in becoming addicted to anxiety.
Maybe you can relate…
Have you ever been too afraid to try something because you fear failing again?
Been there done that (still do at times!)
Have fearful thoughts deprived you of all the liberty you should enjoy as a Christian woman?
Do you feel held back because you fear that you’ll make a grave mistake?
Maybe you’re starting to believe those nagging thoughts that tell you you’ll never be good enough at anything you do.
What about when you’ve prepared adequately for your presentation, but you’re afraid you’ll look like a fool in front of so many? (Ugh, I’ve so been there and done that…embarrassingly so).
“When will I ever be good enough? When will I ever be free to live truly, love, and laugh?”
Does that sound like you?
Do you sense that being afraid is costing you joy, fulfillment, accomplishments, stability, and some extra peace of mind?
If this resonates with you, trust me when I say it resonates so much with me cos that’s the exact person I used to be… till I discovered the secrets of overcoming fear with faith.
I know you want a change…and I hope that the tips I’m going to share with you today will be the beginning of that change.
Fear is not something that overwhelms me constantly like it once did.
Yes, I still suffer from it but it’s not a constant companion like it once was.
If fear and anxiety are something that you want freedom from, I encourage you to read over these words and begin to implement them into your life!

Mini Calming Anti-Anxiety Toolbox To Help Boost Your Mental Health On The Go!
1 Corinthians 7:32
“I want you to be free from anxieties.”
Oh man… we want this so badly, don’t we? To be free of anxiety and worry sounds amazing, doesn’t it?
But if I’m being honest, it also sounds elusive.
Like something that we might never have. With the news being at an unprecedented
level of stressfulness (yes I just made up a word), it’s hard to imagine that being free
from anxiety can be an actual “thing”.
I don’t want you to feel this way though.
You can fight and overcome anxiety.
Or at the very least you can reduce anxiety so much that it doesn’t rule your life and rob you of your joy.
The plan God has for your life will start to unfold before you once you stop letting fear and anxiety control you.
What you need is a kit of calming tools and strategies that you can turn to whenever anxiety starts to overcome you.
When you build this kit, you can use it to stop anxiety in its tracks (or greatly reduce it).
Arm yourself with these calming tools so you can have them at your disposal whenever you are in a stressful situation or you know you are able to go into an anxiety-inducing situation.
They will help you cope with whatever comes your way!
The beautiful thing about this mental health toolbox is that you can use this wherever you are…In the car, at work, on vacation, or at home.
And even your kids could use them if they suffer from mental health issues!
Or you could create one to give as a gift to someone you know who struggles with anxiety!
So let’s get started ya’ll!
A bad break-up.
A sick child.
Medical bills piling up with no idea of how you’re going to pay for it.
The truth is there are so many potential fears & anxiety triggers that it can be hard to know how to get to the root of your anxiety and figure out what in the world is causing those knots to tighten in your stomach.
I know everyone experiences anxiety from time to time.
There are unexpected circumstances that come up in life that leave us feeling more worried, scared, or anxious than usual.
Experiencing anxiety every now and then is normal.
But I’m talking about the kind of fear that hovers over you to the point where you can’t enjoy activities that you used to love.
The kind of anxiety that debilitates you.
If that’s the kind of fear you have and you want to know the root cause of it then please stick around.
Why?
Because digging deep and learning the root of your anxiety issues can help you stop an anxiety attack from happening in the future.
So let’s dive right in so you can start to get the help you need.
Should I try online therapy is the same question I asked myself over 10 years ago when I was suffering from depression and anxiety.

This may be the same situation you see yourself in at the moment and so I’m going to tell you upfront:
Yes, you should get online therapy and in today’s post, I’m going to tell you why and where you can get it.
This is what we’ll cover:
Online therapy is a tool that I give major credit to in my mental health journey.
I promise you, I would not be writing this blog post without having done online counseling many years ago.
I was too depressed and anxious to actually start a blog and too self-conscious to put myself out there.
Truth is having a healthy body but an unhealthy mind, so to speak, just won’t cut it y’all.
I’m nowhere close to where I want to be physically, financially, mentally, or spiritually.
But I do understand fully that all of these aspects work together to create the healthiest person possible.
Your mind is a big component of why you do what you do.
If you feel like everything is a huge struggle and you haven’t tried online counseling yet then I’m going to share with you 3 true benefits that online therapy has vs traditional therapy and which site helped me the most.
