Dealing with Stress

"I'm about ready to crawl into a hole... absolutely nothing is going right."

 

This was an entry in my journal in October 2005.  I had five children ages eight and under at the time; I was suffering daily from pain; there were problems in my personal life, in our homeschool co-op, and in our church.

 

During that time, the only things that seemed to comforted me were verses from the Bible and the song "Voice of Truth" by Casting Crowns.  The song spoke directly to my heart, reminding me that my life is for HIS glory and I should not be afraid - even when situations seem unbearable.

 

Over the years, like most people, I've had times of great disappointment.  When you are stressed to the point when you think you cannot go on, I would recommend that you listen to the Voice of Truth.  Read your Bible.  Pray.  Ask the Lord to bring you comfort.  He will.
