Stand Still

Are you so overwhelmed by anything you need to accomplish that you feel as though you might crack? I understand what its like to be stressed. Its difficult to find balance in our lives with our hectic schedules and multitude of responsibilities.

Fear is a major cause of stress, yet there are many places in the bible where God telss us to "fear not". When we "fear not," we are able to step outside the realm of being panic-stricken by circumstances. Then we are to "stand still."

I've experienced many times running around all stressed out. There are times that I dont get enough sleep and get annoyed easily from simple things.

When we are in the middle of stressful situation, the problem are often all you can see. Of course if you were in the middle of a fire, the situation would look really bad to you. But if you were outside the fire, you would be able to handle it rationally. God deals with our circumstances from outside the stress, so step outside with Him. He has the solution we need.
