Green light

Lately I’ve been blindsided with feeling like I’m panicky, weak and incompetent, so for the past 6 weeks I’ve been attending a course of CBT from a biblical perspective. And now I know those feelings are a lie, a negative thinking style and the very opposite to what God thinks of me.
During the final session we were asked to think of two things we’ve praised ourselves for today. Sadly I could only think of one but I was so proud on completion of this course that I had signed up and have gotten myself there on my own every week despite my fear of talking in groups- even missing an England World Cup match in the process which was no small thing!
I learned how habitual our thoughts are, how little we consciously notice them yet how much they affect what we feel and do. I now just want to fill my mended head with thoughts that are helpful to me and pleasing to God. I write about this just for myself to look back upon. So thankful for the course and deliverer, provided divinely at the right time for me.

Matthew 8:24-26 New International Version (NIV)
Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”
He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm

1 Peter 5:7 New International Version (NIV)
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
