Beat your stress


Psalm 46:10 (ESV)
“Be still, and know that I am God.
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth!”

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention recently said that for over half the people who die before they’re 65, the basic cause of death is stress. I read one scholar who said that between 60 and 70 percent of people who go to see their physician have stress as the underlying cause of their symptoms.

This is not how God wants you to live! God says we should rest in the knowledge that He is good and cast our burdens onto Him.

I want you to do just a little thing. Without moving, take a deep breath. And then, be still for a moment. Ask the Lord to show you what is bringing undue stress into your life. Pray to Him, “Lord, take away my anxiety about this issue and help me trust You to look after it today.”

As the new year begins, cast your burdens onto Jesus and let Him take them away.

Dear Lord, help us to take the things that stress us out and give them completely to You. Thank You for being bigger than anything that comes our way. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
