When dealing with anxiety, the best thing you can do is to pray and meditate on Bible verses. But which passages should you study? While googling ‚Scriptures to calm anxiety‘ you probably find a list of verses that contain the terms ‚fear‘ and ‚anxiety‘. Here’s an example that shows up regularly: Have I not commanded […]
Around 3 years into my life as a believer, I wanted nothing more than to grow closer to God. I was trying to figure out how to live like a Christian and how to have a strong bond with God. One day, I had an eye-opening chat over coffee with a woman from church. I […]
We feel secure when we believe that God loves us and has our back. When we don’t experience this intimacy with our heavenly Father, the whole world seems daunting to us. But when we walk closely with God knowing that he cares for us, we are able to take steps by faith. We become courageous […]
Highly sensitive people (HSP) process everything more deeply due to a biologically different nervous system.

I’ve always been the quiet type of kid. No, I was never the loner but always the girl that stuck to 1-2 close friends and did some drawing in the back of the classroom. Even today, I prefer doing calm activities like writing or having a deep conversation with a friend, instead of pursuing some […]
