God promises to lead us beside quiet waters, make us lie down in green pastures, quiet us with his love, and give us peace. So why are there millions who can never seem to find those quiet waters?

This book is so helpful. It sheds a whole new light on what anxiety is and how we can view it differently and take ADVANTAGE of it. There is good anxiety and there is a way out of bad anxiety.
Through its studies on anxiety "Anxiety and the Peace of God" demonstrates how personal transformation and understanding result from deep examination of anxious emotions. According to the central theme every emotion God created serves a purpose including anxiety which He intentionally brought into existence. We can turn chaos into calm by seeing our emotions as divine gifts from God. God creates stress responses with particular purposes to help people develop personally and become more self-aware. When we manage our emotions properly we achieve transcendental peace which helps us approach life's challenges with grace and confidence.
The discussion of anxiety in the book examines how we face the challenge of obeying God's spoken commands while remaining attentive to our internal life energy. The book teaches readers to reframe their understanding of anxiety as a catalyst for spiritual development and deeper connection with God. The book teaches that recognizing anxiety's spiritual roots marks the initial step in conquering this challenge. The Word of God provides special "miracle cures" to treat every form of spiritual anxiety which enables us to regain inner peace. The process of exploration demands separation between worldly advice and our internal voice which external factors have influenced. Focusing on God's direction enables us to stand against tempting voices that push us toward personal desires as opposed to God's teachings in the same way that the snake tempted Eve.
The book stands as an essential resource by presenting specific techniques for controlling escalating thoughts and feelings which enables people to better comprehend and manage their emotions. Through emotional experiences God teaches us to synchronize our feelings with His divine intent for our lives. You will notice divine harmony when you attentively listen to God's words alongside your inner voice because they will demonstrate no discrepancies. Through this understanding people can move from living in anxiety to having a deep connection with God's voice and presence. Through our journey we eliminate fear to enable us to pursue our genuine purpose with courage.
Therefore, I think that knowing what the purpose of anxiety is tantamount to knowing how to handle anxiety.
