  4. Jesus Christ can take illnesses away. Christ is powerful , trust in the Lord. Fix our eyes upon the Lord, Jesus is the way the way ,the truth and the life. Praying for Luke and Courtney, Jesus will never leave you nor forsake you. I deal with bipolar disorder since I was 15 , I put my faith in God

  5. I had depression and anxiety for over forty years, I had spent weeks, years in a sea of despair. I had been on various medications over the year. I finally accepted my Lord God and asked for His forgiveness through His Son Christ Jesus. It was the verse in the second letter of Paul to Timothy 1:7 “ for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power and love and a sound mind “ , that was my lightbulb moment realising that the adversary was the cause of my mind of fear. I never took another tablet. I have such peace my life has been transformed. If I could give anyone advice I would say to pray often to the Father and read His word every day, and don’t just read the words, actually live your life by them; be a doer. God Bless you.

  6. Today was a day where my husband has an explosive argument with all the personal things I'm dealing with my family and mother struggling with illness. it was so overwhelming and while I am researching things online I listened to Dawn by Rebecca St James I came across Courtney's testimony after watching it with the ending prayer I know that I am not alone with anxiety and fear but most of all Christ is with me in every way. If you are able please thank her for me & God bless!

  8. Courtney, God bless you for sharing this. I am such a huge fK&C fan, and it all started with my hearing Luke talking about the reason behind this song Burn the Ships, and watching and listening to it. I actually was in the midst of one of my most debilitating panic attacks when I listened to that song. Ever since that experience, I have felt the power of God in my anxiety, helping me try to control it. For the first time ever, I have sought counseling and am working with my mental demons. I am so grateful to YOU for sharing this in your words, thank you thank you thank you. You have touched me deeply, personally, to know that I am not alone and that my favorite band in the world has experience with real life situations especially mental health. I admire you, I am following you on social media, and I love your sweet family, oh that cute little baby girl!! Love, Hope, and Blessings❤️

  9. Im so happy you are feeling better now. I also have a similar story. It takes a brave person to come out and share a story like yours. I’m sure God will use your story to help others. Thank you !

  11. You need CHRIST to take it away. To take away the craving for any kind of sin or drug, to take away the feelings of withdrawal, to take away the literal dependancy on it, so you can start making the choices not to take the next pill or drink or whatever. A detox center can't do that for you. They can help, but they cannot take away the literal addiction or bondage to sin. Only Christ can supernaturally do it.

  14. You're not alone Courtney. I gave that kind of call to my husband so he could take me to the ER. I had a plan and everything. My PTSD was thru the roof and was having High anxiety and ended up in a mental ward for a week while I get on medication to help me. I'm still on medication and therapy but it's helping. The lord is leading me to a more healthy way and healing me. The lord was with me there and it made a huge difference.

  17. First of all I would like to say thank you for sharing your story. It was very brave of you. I too suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I know the the absolute fear that comes with them. Wishing you much joy in your life to come!

  37. I have struggled with anxiety attacks for years; since I was a teenager and I am 70 years old now. These attacks are horrible. As a Christian, I have prayed, used medications, Christian Counseling, exercise, etc. I haven't completely put the anxiety attacks in my past, but I know the Lord is with me when I have one. Some times I feel like I am dying and I will go into a room and isolate. My insides shake. I haven't put these attacks in my past, but without God, I know I wouldn't be here. This is the first time I have ever shared any of this with any one other than God, my Husband, and Counselors.

  38. We are always afraid to share about anxiety attacks. But when we are surrounded by true Godly people we are loved unconditionally and we will make it through our struggle through God and the people we love.❤️
