This is part 4 of the Finding Your Way Back to God series. 

Title: Back to God #4: I Can’t Shake This Feeling (4/29)

Hook: Between family relationships, pressures at work, health issues, and the day-to-day details of life, most everyone has felt anxious at some point. Too often anxiety leaves us feeling helpless and overwhelmed. But when we follow Paul’s simple advice in Philippians 4:6, all of us can develop habits that allow us to use God’s power to calm our anxious minds.

Key Points: 

1. Habit #1: Choose not to worry. Philippians 4:6
2. Habit #2: Pray about it. Matthew 7:11
3. Habit #3: Verbalize your needs. Matthew 6:8
4. Habit #4: Thank God for the wins. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
