Non stop stress seems normal these days. I am overwhelmed from dealing with one crisis after another. My tired brain runs on fumes. No matter how much I work, I get overwhelmed by what needs to be done. I turn to food even though I know it won’t solve my problems.
Matthew 4:4 is, “Jesus answered… “It takes more than bread to stay alive. It takes a steady stream of words from God’s mouth’”
Holy Bible The Message, 2002,
I need more than bread or food to survive. There is no way I can handle everything on my own strength. Trying harder burns me out and keeps me focused on negatives. My stress level decreases when I seek the Lord and trust Him to meet all my needs. God gives me peace and strength to thrive in the storm.
