We continue our study on the various aspects of Anxiety, however we spend our third and final week in Psalm 42. What does this Psalm teach us about how to deal with the Disquieted Soul?
We often go through life unaware of what is going on inside of us. The Psalmist is... Self-Aware - he realizes that something is not right in his soul and he names it. If you can name the anxiety and where it is coming from, it will de-escalate the power it has over you. The Psalmist is...Other-Aware - he realizes that other people's hurtful words have caused him anxiety. We are all interconnected, and anxiety is contagious. The Psalmist is... God-Aware - he realizes that, although he is disquieted, that God is still working on Him.
