Donnie Wahlberg’s fans appreciate him for his many talents, from his singing with New Kids on the Block to acting in Blue Bloods. But one character trait stands out for the 53-year-old star, and that’s his sincerity.
Donnie shared a heartfelt message with his fans on Instagram, and it got a huge reaction from followers. In the 15-second clip, Donnie is seen sitting in his office chair and nodding, while audio from Children’s Pastor Elijah Zielke plays: “There is one phrase in the Bible that is repeated 365 times. Do you know what it is? ‘Do not be afraid.'”

Donnie paired the clip with a lengthy caption. He shares a message of encouragement, while opening up about his own struggles: “To whomever is struggling with fear today, I know a 15 second reel may not change your life. I also know that it’s not easy to live without fear, worry or anxiety. It’s something that I’ve worked on, and continue to work on, every single day since I was an anxiety riddled little kid. That said, if this reel can give you a little boost, a little bit of hope or even ease your worry for a brief 15 seconds — then it’s worth me sharing! Hang in there! You will make it through — you always do! Sending love your way. #thankfulthursday 🤖❤️♾💫✨🤟🏼 🙏🏼❤️💫”
The message certainly hit home with Donnie’s fans, who left comments like, “You are such a bright positive light in our lives. Thank you Mr. Wahlberg ❤️” and “Thank you for this little spotlight on what we deal with daily. Gives us hope ❤️❤️.” Another follower said, “You have NO idea how much I needed this exact thing today. I’ve been anxious all morning with fear. And now I’m sitting at my desk at work crying over this reel. Thank you Donnie ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
Donnie has a bit more free time in his schedule this year. Blue Bloods was supposed to resume filming in July, but production has been on hold due to the ongoing writers’ and actors’ strikes. Hopefully we’ll see more of him on our TV screens soon. Until then, we’ll be on the lookout for new social media posts.
