Bible's Message on Living Life Well

Some of God’s truths and guidelines found in the Bible regarding mental health and living life well:
A peaceful heart leads to a healthy body; jealousy is like cancer in the bones.” Proverbs 14:30 
A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit.” Proverbs 15:13 
A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” Proverbs 17:22 
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” Proverbs 4:23 
Anxiety in the heart of a man weighs it down, But a good word makes it glad.” Proverbs 12:25 
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 
And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.” Philippians 4:8 
Throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.” Ephesians 4:22-23

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” Jesus in John14:27
