What does the Bible say about anxiety?
Scripture meets anxiety not with a scolding but with an exchange — worry handed over, and something specific handed back:
6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
The instruction is not simply to stop worrying, but to move the weight somewhere — into prayer, and with thanksgiving. What returns is a peace the passage admits we cannot fully explain, one that keeps the heart and mind rather than merely calming them for a moment.
Modern Word answers this way on purpose: the response and the verse it rests on, together — so you can sit with the text yourself and see where the peace is promised.
