Got Stress? This might help....
CHRISTIAN WAYS TO REDUCE STRESS
An Angel says, "Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may happen
tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen,
you have to worry twice."
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise
your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't
lump the hard things all together.
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns . If a situation is a concern, find out what God
would have you do and let go of the anxiety . If you can't do anything about a
situation, forget it .
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the
garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an
enormous amount of trouble.
15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.
17. Get enough rest.
18. Eat right.
19. Get organized so everything has its place.
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22. Every day, find time to be alone.
23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot.. Try to nip small problems in the
bud. Don't wait until it's time to go to bed to try and pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good
"Thank you Jesus."
27. Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).
32. Sit on your ego.
33. Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.
36 . Every night before bed, think of one thing you're grateful for that you've never
been grateful for before. GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR
YOU. "If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31)
Be careful for nothing: but in
every thing by prayer and
supplication with
thanksgiving let your
requests be made known
unto God.
And the peace of God, which
passeth all understanding,
shall keep your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6, 7
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31
Red grapes have long been
praised as a heart superfood,
largely due to their high content
of the antioxidant chemical
resveratrol. Studies have linked
resveratrol to increased life
span, decreased risk of heart
disease and cancer, and
reductions in levels of
inflammation and blood sugar.
However, resveratrol alone has
never been enough to explain the
health benefits of diets that
include significant quantities of
red wine, such as the
Mediterranean diet.

Feeling a little overwhelmed? One
easy and safe way to decant your
emotions — even the most hurtful,
terrifying, or sad ones — is to write
them down. Letting go of these
bottled-up feelings with a pen and
paper can relieve stress and put
your mind at ease.
James 1: 2-4
“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”
The Good News: Look at stress as a blessing because it allows you to see your faith in God and learn perseverance to overcome challenges in the future.
