Listen to the previous episode to learn about Anxiety can be a way that the devil attacks our identity as beloved children of God. People experience anxiety in a variety of forms, but at its root, we begin to doubt that we are loved in and of ourselves: that we don’t need to prove our worth through success or our worthiness to be loved. Rather, simply because we exist, we are loved. Nothing we do or not do can limit how much God loves us.
