Seems like stress is turning up everywhere. There’s life-change stress, heart stress… now there’s even bank stress!
What is stress? Stress is the strain that occurs whenever the demands exceed the available resources.
Most of us don’t need a test to figure out we’re stressed. All we need is one look at the stack of bills on the table. It’s right there next to the ever- growing to-do list and the candle that’s burning at both ends!
How could you let your life get so out of whack!? we hear ourselves say.
Not Jesus. Listen to His tender invitation: Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.1
