How Do You Spell Relief? J-E-S-U-S! (by Pastor Linda Pugsley)

6/5/2011

1 Comment

 
  • Today’s world is BUZZING!
  • Stress is at an all-time high.
  • We are on an information overload.
  • The sense of community is fading from our neighborhoods and schools.
  • Rebellion is rampant.
  • Envy and “keeping up with the Joneses” is not only exhausting but sometimes financially disastrous.
Yikes! Not a pretty picture. BUT, there is a way to relieve all of this stress ... living a life in Christ.

Stress-solving Scriptures can be found in 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 and 5:14-21.  Here, we are encouraged to lead a quiet life, attend to our own business, work with our hands, do as we are told, behave properly, don’t be in any need, help the weak, be patient with all men, don’t repay evil with evil, pray without ceasing, etc.

It is so simple ... we almost could miss it.  Just because it is simple doesn’t mean it is easy. But the God of peace will preserve us body, soul and spirit.  Ahhhhhhh! Don’t you feel better already?

I like the "But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good". Seems like that says it all whether you believe or not. Strive to be a good person, always try to do the right thing and,if there is a God in Heaven, He will take care of the rest. Ahhh, I feel better already. :)
