Do you ever feel a constant tightening you can't quite shake? In this meditation, Fr Gavan explores anxiety: where it comes from, why it so easily takes over, and how Christ's gift of peace is not the removal of all troubles but something deeper. Drawing on Saint Teresa of Avila's famous poem found written in her breviary after her death, and the simple wisdom of rest, he offers a gentle and practical path through worry and toward the peace that only God can give.
