"I was a Christian hiding this secret. "
— Scarlet Hiltibidal
Have you ever been eaten up with anxiety? Have you ever found yourself all in a panic? Or have you held on tight to a secret struggle and felt like everything would fall apart if anyone found you out? If so, you're not alone. Scarlet Hiltibidal is a mom, pastor's wife, author, speaker, and someone who struggles with anxiety and panic. She used to try desperately to be perfect and to hide her struggles. But one day, she realized that she couldn't do it anymore, and it was the best thing! You'll be so encouraged by Scarlet's story of how God worked his great peace in her heart and continues to do so. It is a picture of the story God wants to tell not in just Scarlet's life but in all our lives.
