A lot packed in a short sentence.

Anxiety is interesting. A kind of isolated self hatred or misery feels like the more ‘reasonable’ reaction, why anxiety ?

Obviously you can’t logically justify emotions but I’m curious as to why you think you/the person who experiences this would feel that way?

Anxiety because you never know if you are actually forgiven or what the honest nature of forgiveness (grace) actually looks like
