He told me the symptoms were the result of being under stress. I wasn\u2019t getting enough sleep, and I was eating improperly, and pushing myself too hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stress is a normal part of everyone\u2019s life. God has created us to withstand a certain amount of pressure and tension. The problem comes when we push beyond our limitations and ignore the warnings our body gives us when it hurts or is exhausted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I urge you to take good care of yourself, because if you wear out the body you have, you cannot go to a store and buy a new one. Many of the things we do that give us stress overload are things we could change if we would. Be honest with yourself about why you are doing some of the things you do and let God help you prune off the ones that are wearing you out and bearing no good fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Peace is meant to be the normal condition for every believer in Jesus Christ. He is the Prince of Peace, and in Jesus we find our own inheritance of peace. It is a gift from the Holy Spirit, which He gives as we live in obedience to His Word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prayer of the Day:<\/strong>&nbsp;Lord Jesus, thank You for the peace You give\u2014peace that operates in the midst of a storm. And because of Your peace, I can manage my stress today and every day, amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, thanksgiving is over, and that cost ALOT more this year thanks to Brandon Protests against Covid controls erupt across China BEIJING \u2014 Rare protests broke out across China over the weekend as groups of people vented their frustration over the zero-Covid policy.
