Poems and Relieving Anxiety and Stress
by Susanna Katherine

What greater love can be bestowed?
Our God came down for us to know.
What greater love can one give?
Than lose their life for another to live.
Sublime, supreme, awe inspired
Of the love of God I never get tired
Never there be in all of mankind
A story more beautiful to find
Oh perfect God Holy and true
You made me and kept me just for you
And when to You we disobeyed
You patiently waited until you could save
The ones whose choice is only you
Oh perfect God Holy and true.


"A Love Song to God"
by Susanna Katherine


What manner of love is this?
Wholly selfless, not greedy, agape it is.
Make me wiser all to find
Make me brighter too
Give me words that can bend a mind
To see the truth of You
Let me see Lord with your eyes
With Your ears let me hear
Wash my eyes Lord to see the wise
Even with many a tear
Dissolve the world around me
So only You I hear and see
Agape only agape... Spirit come in me
Comfort me, teach me, guide me so soon I am free.


When feeling panicky, fearful or depressed first spend time with God and pray for His help...also...

Think of a beautiful place where you want to be...see it, feel it, smell it, enjoy it...relax, slow your breathing down, sigh with deep slow breaths, focus all your attention on it and a good outcome that you can imagine happening instead of worrying about that something you repeatedly dread that probably will never happen or you can't do anything about anyway. When that demon of dread and fear shows up...immediately jump over to that beautiful place and put all your focus on it...dwell there...where the peace of the Lord is. Know that soon the discomfort will leave you and you will be fine.

Interesting Facts...

If you didn't have an imagination, you would not worry or be creative.

Everything good humans have accomplished started with somebody's imagination working in the right way.

Worry is also a function of imagination.

You can use your imagination for good thoughts, creativity, painting, writing, playing music, singing, etc. or you can use it for bad thoughts, worry and misery. It is your choice...choose wisely. Don't make yourself your own victim and ruin your life. The victim mentality is addictive so stop it immediately.

Thoughts become chemicals. Worry is bad thoughts that produce chemical imbalances.

Stress not handled properly and causing worry and fear produces flight or fight that causes too much adrenaline that makes the heart beat faster, the blood pressure to go up and many symptoms and feelings like you are dying.

Stress not handled properly can cause anxiety which can cause chest or upper abdomen discomfort, feeling of dread, rapid heart, chest pain, sweating, and feeling like not getting enough oxygen, breathing shallow or breathing too fast, panic attacks.

Stress handled properly can produce great creativity.

All great creativity is from great anxiety.

Panic attacks are a feeling of impending doom or about to die and create many other symptoms.

Imagery = visual arts, drama, poetry, creativity can calm the brain, relieve the effects of stress, expand awareness, add choices, empower the mind to think clear good thoughts instead of bad thoughts.

Imagining a peaceful, safe, beautiful place helps the one part of your brain tell the fight or flight part of your brain that it is beautiful and safe so it hits the all clear and not the fight or flight stress (fast heartbeat, anxiety feelings).

Being creatively busy with you mind, hands and body keeps these demons of worry, fear, and anxiety away.

Idle (not busy, work-shy) hands are the devil's workshop.

"My people perish for lack of knowledge."

"Above all...seek wisdom."...the wisdom of the Lord is the only wisdom.

Painting of Bridge of Life


Bridge of Life
 
Thankful For...
I don't love darkness.
Light and darkness can't exist together.
There is either darkness or light.
If you choose darkness then you accept it, begin loving it and craving it.
And without the Light, you become one with darkness...a part of darkness...
then you become darkness.
In God there is no darkness.
Jesus is God. Jesus is Light.
Without Jesus and Light, you are eternally damned to live in darkness and separated from God and totally alone forever.  SK

Proverbs 8:22-26 " The LORD possessed me at the beginning of His creation, before His works of long ago. I was set up before ancient times from the beginning, before the earth began. I was brought forth when there were no watery depths and no springs filled with water. I was brought forth before the mountains and hills were established, before He made the land, the fields, or the first soil on earth. I was there when He established the heavens, when He laid out the horizon on the surface of the ocean, when He placed the skies above, when the fountains of the ocean gushed forth, when He set a limit for the sea so that the waters would not violate His command, when He laid out the foundations of the earth. Then I was by Him, as one brought up with Him. I was His delight every day, always rejoicing before Him. I was rejoicing in His inhabited world, delighting in the human race. And now, [my] sons, listen to me; those who keep my ways are happy. Listen to instruction and be wise; don't ignore it. Anyone who listens to me is happy, watching at my doors every day, waiting by the posts of my doorway. For the one who finds me finds life and obtains favor from the LORD, but the one who sins against me harms himself; all who hate me love death."
 
This speaks of Jesus Christ, Who is Wisdom, the Word, and Who was always with God the Father.
If we sin against the Bible (The Word of God=Jesus Christ) disobeying or ignoring it's instructions, we have sinned against our own souls.
