Anxiety is only. Only! ONLY!! a result of what we feed our mind.
The Bible says, “As a person thinks, so he is.”
The ONLY cure for anxiety is to change what we feed our mind! Changing what we read and listen to.
If you often ask, “Well I don’t know what to read or listen to?”
No worries.
This is a list of 10 books to deal with anxiety that will make you feel ALIVE with freedom!
Anxiety MUST be dealt with!
So, I have spent many hours deciding on these top 10 books that will transform the way you think and DESTROY anxiety for good in your life:
10 BOOKS TO DEAL WITH ANXIETY:

3. ‘The Pursuit of God’ by AW Tozer
4.8/5 stars – 765 reviews
Yes, the title may be enough for you to skip by this one if you’re dealing with anxiety. But I have added this because it is the book that as had the biggest impact on MY anxiety.
As I said the ONLY cure for anxiety is to change what we feed our mind. But we MUST feed it with what will give us more hunger for God. The closer you are to God, the less anxious you are.
This book helped ME the most since it brought me further from anxiety and closer to God. So much so that I read it twice.

More than just a Christian devotional! An account of the authors agonizing struggle with depression and anxiety. And HOW he overcame the most difficult time of his life.

You know, Thank you
There are books I have read also, that turned me into seeing clearer God’s Love and Mercy for us to have and hold onto, no matter what troubles come upon us.
Ones I have read are:
Classic Christianity
Complete in Christ. Both by Bob George
C.S. Lewis, the Screwtape Letters, Deep
Also, this present darkness by Frank Perretti
What’s so amazing about Grace, by Phillip Yancey
The Shack also, it is a movie now too.
I have read Joyce Meyers also
I find that if God is one’s motive to know him, God will supply that ability to each of his kids, as does this by Son to start the new life to begin in them. What a bumpy ride, I see this to not deny God even as in Job, the book of Faith to not deny God no matter what troubles happen to us
Wow! Thank you for these other amazing suggestions:D
I will actually check these out too!
I love getting new book suggestions and finding epic Christian books.
The one that has had the most impact in my life apart from the Bible is ‘The Pursuit of God’ probably.
Thanks for the feedback man and may God fill you with truth and faith through these books.
Romans 10:17:
‘So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.’
