Stress, worry, angst, fear, nervous, anxiety

Stress is a normal part of life, we even have a whole set of hormones in her body, referred to as “stress, hormones.“ Stress can also be paralyzing, demoralizing, and destructive.
There was a time a little more than 20 years ago when I was pretty convinced that my wife, then, my girlfriend, was trying to check out on our relationship. She’s been distancing herself, mostly because she was afraid the commitment we were heading toward, but I didn’t know that. I got to where I was anxiety, twisted up inside all the time. I would constantly check my phone to see if she called or texted. In the midst of that, I found the phone.
“ “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice.”
‭‭Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭ESV‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/59/php.4.5-8.ESV
Our society is currently obsessed with the shortest, quickest tip, or trick to get anything done. The reality is, there are very few, if any healthy ways to quickly deal with anxieties, worries and fears. These take time and practice.
  1. Find something to be grateful for, to rejoice about
  2. Find another one
  3. Don’t take your stress out on others
  4. The Lord is ALWAYS near
  5. Pray thankfully
  6. Tell Him your concerns
  7. His astonishing peace will guard your heart and mind
 
None of that is a quick tip. The principles are incredibly simple, but they’re not fast or easy. These take time, submission, and a willingness to hear from the Lord. It works, but you have to go through the whole process, sometimes over and over. Lean on a brother, talk to someone, post regularly. You are not alone!

“Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.” – Colossians 3:17 NASB1995

Most of the day, we likely perform our tasks without thinking much about our purpose. Our focus should always be on serving God. So, we need to be mindful of where our thoughts should be in all that we do. We need to do all in the name of the Lord. Do we bring God glory in all the things that we do? This is probably an easy question to answer, but a hard answer to hear. Let’s try our best to keep this in the forefront of our minds.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I talked a little bit about Jonah and how he wasn’t the best guy to begin with as far as profits go, God sent him on a mission, and he ran thinking he could run away from God. I was very critical of him when I was discussing this with my Sunday school class This past Sunday. But as I took a moment, I realized I do this on a daily basis. So how dare I judge Jonah for not listening to God. I learned a pretty good lesson and thought I would share it with the group.

5 stations were evenly (or not so evenly) placed along the hill at Lakeshore. Each station contained a sheet with 2 exercises on it, one for going over the hill and the other for coming back. Starting at the bottom by the stop sign, the PAX was instructed to run up 2 stations and back one and perform the “Going” exercise 10 times. Then run 2 more stations and back one, perform the Going exercise 10 times. At the 5th station, perform both exercises (Going & Back) and then do the same thing (up 2, back 1) on the way back, except perform the “Back” exercises. Once the PAX reaches the 1st station, rinse and repeat but perform 15 of each exercise, 3rd round 20 of each. Exercises were as follows:

  1. Going – Merkins, Back – American Hammers
  2. Going – Monkey Humpers, Back – TIE Fighters
  3. Going – Box Cutters, Back – Shoulder Taps
