Stressed lately? Are you keenly aware of how chronic stress can impact your health? Did you know that 75-90% of visits to the doctors’ office are related to stress? (The American Psychological Association)
I have sensed God calling me to share in a concise way the truth about stress and health and how a personal relationship with Him can help matters. Yesterday I posted a 3 minute automatic presentation on my home page that tells this story – Stress and Unhealthy Habits – See How God Can Help.
If you are struggling with life and the stressors of life, or know someone who is, you may benefit from viewing this or the person you know may be helped by seeing it.
During times of distress, it’s good to remember what God’s Word says about who He is and how He cares for us:
God is our refuge and strength,
always ready to help in times of trouble.
So we will not fear when earthquakes come
and the mountains crumble into the sea.
Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge!A river brings joy to the city of our God,
the sacred home of the Most High.
God dwells in that city; it cannot be destroyed.
From the very break of day, God will protect it.
The nations are in chaos, (the economy is a wreck!) and their kingdoms crumble!
God’s voice thunders, and the earth melts!
The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is here among us;
the God of Israel is our fortress.Come, see the glorious works of the Lord:
See how he brings destruction upon the world.
He causes wars to end throughout the earth.
He breaks the bow and snaps the spear;
he burns the shields with fire.“Be still, and know that I am God!
I will be honored by every nation.
I will be honored throughout the world.”The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is here among us;
the God of Israel is our fortress. Psalm 46
In times of stress, I know of no antidote better than to turn to God and receive His love and promises. Keep your connection to Him strong.
Have a great week!
This was interesting. Do you write articles about health, wellness, faith and weightloss?
