I received an Advanced Reader Copy from Netgalley for a review. All opinions are my own.

I just finished this book and it is the most powerful book I've ever read. It is written in plain everyday language that anyone could understand. I could feel the power of God as I was reading this book. I wish I had this book years ago, but it's never to late to turn your life around. This is a life changing book. Thank you Dr. Michelle Bengtson for writing this book to help everybody get the peace that only God can give.

This is not just another book covering the topic of anxiety. It is science & clinical experience married with the Word of God to demonstrate the power of our chain-breaking Creator. Dr. Michelle brings her years of experience to help her readers come to the feet of the cross where they can become Free from worry, anxiety and fear. It is well written and easy to read but still full of sustenance.

"God doesn’t promise that we won’t experience difficult circumstances. Yet, we don’t have to let fear and grief consume us. We can lean on God and his understanding, and choose to live in his peace rather than worry, anxiety, and fear. "

"Then if not addressed, anxiety seeps into our lives and spreads like water from a leaky roof to damage everything it touches."

"If I trust that his Word is true, then I must trust that everything he says is true. Not just for others but also for me."

"Faith isn’t a feeling but rather trusting God when the future appears uncertain. "
