Bible Verses for Anxiety and Worry

If your mind won't stop racing, or you feel like you're carrying more than you can hold, you're not alone. Scripture doesn't just tell you to “stop worrying” — it offers something to actually hold onto instead.

“In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.”

Philippians 4:6–7

“Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.”

Matthew 6:34

“casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.”

1 Peter 5:7
