The One Verse that Helps Jordan Feliz Overcome Anxiety

Jordan Feliz's new album "Future" was inspired largely by his own battle with anxiety. While in studio Jordan opened up about what Bible verse has given his some freedom.

"There is actually one verse that has impacted the entire record and has impacted a lot of my anxiety and stress.

Ephesians 1:18 "I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people."

This is a prayer from Paul over God's people about our reliance on God. As humans we want to take control over everything in our lives. However it's something that we can choose everyday to not do. We can choose to say" No I am not going to do this today and I'm going to give this to the Lord," and He will take it. It is probably going to create more stress for you in the moment because giving things up is so hard for us, but the moment that you do it is where freedom is truly found. It's literally one of the hardest things I've had to do in my life: to learn to trust God.

Hear more from Jordan on how his anxiety played a roll in writing his new hit song "Witness."
