We live in stressful days, and it seems that people are stressed to the limit. As a child of God we need to realize that we have an answer in God's Word about stress. Philippians 4:6 - "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Verse 7 gives us the result - "And the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
I found the following in my files of how to deal with the stress. Think about the following:
1. Accept the fact that some days you will be the pigeon, and other days you will be the statue.
2. Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case one day you will have to eat them.
3. If you lend someone $20.00 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
4. Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on.
5. Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
6. The second mouse gets the cheese.
7. When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
8. We can learn a lot from crayons. some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all have live in the same box.
9. Never buy a car that you cannot push.
10. Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.
Let us learn to laugh a lot more in life, and give all our burdens to the Lord!
