Anxiety often brings guilt with it.
If I really trusted God…
If I were a better wife…
If I were more content…
But anxiety does not cancel love.

Love and Anxiety Can Coexist

A wife can:
  • Love her husband deeply
  • Desire a healthy marriage
  • Be faithful in commitment
And still struggle internally.
Anxiety speaks loudly, but it does not define devotion.

When Anxiety Becomes Self-Blame

Many women turn anxiety inward:
  • I’m the problem.
  • I’m too much.
  • I’m not enough.
Scripture does not reinforce this narrative.
It redirects our gaze back to Christ.

Learning to Separate Identity From Emotion

Feelings change.
Identity in Christ does not.
A wife is not defined by her calmness, her emotional steadiness, or her ability to “hold it together.”
She is defined by grace.

If anxiety has made you question yourself as a wife, hear this clearly:
Your anxiety does not disqualify you from love, faithfulness, or growth.
