What are some strategies you’ve used to overcome worry? Were these helpful or not? Explain.
-
I go to God’s Word. I pray. I listen to praise and worship songs. If things get overwhelming I seek wise counsel. All of these things are helpful. They tend to calm my spirit and refocus my attention on God and His love for me rather than the problems I am facing. I keep doing this until God grants me the peace I so deeply need.
-
Prayer and a good stiff kick in the butt, this is what seems to work for me. Hope is my survival method, having come from an violent childhood if it were not for hope I would not have survived, if it were not for the fact that I believed with all my being that things get better, then I would have given up.

By giving it over to God, laying it down and not picking it back up
-
One strategy that I use is to take a moment to realize that this is just another situation in my life that I must overcome. I start by praising and thanking the Lord for taking care of me currently and that he will continue to do so, It may take a moment to come to this realization. Because the Lord has shown up for me in the past, I am confident he will in the future.
-
The strategies that I have used to overcome worry are praying, fasting and reading the word of God, In addition to that I normally speak to my Pastor. These strategies usually work for me. Whenever, I fast and pray whatever results I get must be sent by God so I have to accept.
