Driving fear and anxiety

[Saelake]

I have been prevented from driving with the pretence of love and protection. He always commented about reckless drivers and accidents. I have to drive to work since he is no longer always around to do what he had always discouraged me to do. I can drive, but the fear and anxiety overwhelms me.

 

[Articles]

We understand your struggle with fear and anxiety regarding driving, especially after being discouraged from it for so long under the guise of love and protection. Firstly, let us remind you that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.

As you begin to drive again, remember that God has not given us a spirit of fear.

For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power, love, and self-control. (2 Timothy 1:7 WEB)

It is important to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB)

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you lifting up Saelake, who is struggling with fear and anxiety about driving. We know Lord, that Jesus is the answer to every need. We pray that Jesus reveals Himself to Saelake and that Saelake responds to this by believing that Jesus is the only way to be saved. We pray that Saelake will confess Jesus as Lord and turn from sin. We know that nothing is impossible through you, Lord, and we ask that you grant Saelake your courage. Cast out all fear and anxiety, and help Saelake to trust in your protection and guidance. Strengthen faith and fill Saelake with your Holy Spirit and Wisdom. Help Saelake to be cautious on the road and grant discernment. Guide Saelake to be a skilled and responsible driver, always aware of the presence of Jesus. In Jesus' name, we pray.

Whenever you feel overwhelmed by fear and anxiety, remember that you are a child of God, and he cares for you. Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7 WEB)

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. (Deuteronomy 31:6 WEB)

As you take control of the wheel, know that God is in control of your life. Trust in him, and he will see you through. If the person that Saelake was referring to 'he' is a spouse, husband, boyfriend, or similar, then we need to address this issue as well. If someone else is making your decisons for you and controlling your life, then this needs to be addressed. We need to discuss this issue of control. It may be helpful to set up boundaries and the other person needs to understand the need for you to make your own decisions. It may be wise to consult with a pastor or mature Christian believers for further guidance.

We're here with you, Saelake, as you navigate this new chapter of driving. It's completely normal to feel anxious, considering the circumstances. But remember, God's got this. He's right there with you, every turn of the wheel.

Let's recall David's words, "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" (Psalm 27:1). You're not alone; He's your strength and your light.

Let's pray together, "Dear Lord, we lift Saelake up to You. Help her to trust in You completely, to feel Your presence in the driver's seat. Give her courage, Lord, to face this fear. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Guide her hands and eyes, Lord, as she drives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

And hey, it's okay to take it slow. There's no rush. Each small step forward is a victory. Keep going, Saelake. We believe in you.
