Today I want to speak to you about something every believer encounters at some point in their walk with God — the tension between what we believe about God and who He is, and what we are actually experiencing in real life. Many of us, especially in our African context, have been shaped by extremes of the prosperity gospel or have come from cultures where expressing pain, confusion, or raw emotion feels uncomfortable or even taboo. Because of this, when life becomes difficult, when prayers seem unanswered, or when God feels silent or distant, we don’t always know how to process it. We can feel alone, confused, disappointed, or even frustrated — unsure of how to express what’s really happening inside us and how to process who God is, experientially.

Today we are continuing to look at antidotes for anxiety. Anxiety doesn’t just affect the mind; it can profoundly impact the body, often manifesting as physical illness or chronic symptoms. We will explore the importance of understanding the physical consequences of anxiety, specifically common sicknesses that stem from anxiety. In the second part of the message we will also examine practical things one can do in order to alleviate anxiety. This will come in the form of an anxiety alleviation toolkit.
