Anxiety Does Not Define Me: Your Identity Is in Godનમૂનો

GRATITUDE: ANXIETY DOES NOT DEFINE ME. GOD DOES.

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” — 1 Peter 5:7 (NIV)

Today, you close this plan with something anxiety tried to steal from you: Clarity — the clarity that:

• Having anxiety is not a sin.
• Living with anxiety does not cancel your faith.
• Feeling anxious does not change who you are in God.

🤍 You are a daughter. Whole. Valid. Cared for.

Many Christian women carry guilt for not being “emotionally well.”
They feel shame for taking medication, for crying, or for staying silent instead of praying.
And all of this only deepens the suffering.

But today you are reminded of something essential:

Jesus carried not only your sins on the cross, but also your emotional pain.

He is a God who knows what anguish feels like.
His soul sweated drops of blood under unbearable pressure.
And even then, He does not judge you for your anxiety — He understands you.

God, thank You for reminding me that anxiety does not define who I am.
Thank You for being patient with me, even on the days I can barely pray.

I am Yours. And that is enough.
Amen.
