What does the Bible say about anxiety?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches us not to be anxious about our lives, as God cares for us and provides for our needs (Matthew 6:25-34).

In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus instructs us not to worry about our basic necessities like food and clothing. He points to the birds of the air and the lilies of the field as examples of God's providential care. If God provides for these creations, how much more will He provide for us, who are of greater value? This passage reassures us that our lives are secure in God's sovereign hands, and that our worries do not add value to our existence but can lead to despair instead.
