As society get more and more hectic and our days seem to get busier and longer we will need our Savior even more.

HAve you noticed that we are constantly getting more and more advanced. But a recent study shows that life expectancy is actually going DOWN!?!?! You are probably thinking "now why would that be?" well...the reason our life expectancy is falling is due to STRESS. Yes, that nasty 6 letter word. There is even increasing stress on teenagers, even though most adults think that could never happen!

Well, with more and more technology coming out, the stress is put down to the KIDS, the kids have to learn EVEN FASTER and more and more knowledge as time passes. So we have this sense of urgency and sense that we have all this stuff to do because we are learning so fast.

How can we resolve this stress and bring our life expectancy back up?

Well, you answer is simple, God. God can relieve you of all the stress you may have and can be an escape for you.

So why dont you take some time now and say a prayer and ask God to relieve you of your stress.

 
Amen Derek!! Life is so much harder for younger people then when I was young!! MUCH MORE! To be able to dwell on God and his Word during tough times, is so inportant for as you well know!! Where your treasure is!! there will be your heart also!Matt 6:21 because your heart will always be in peace! ( john 14:27) Peace I leave with you,MY peace I give to you;not as the world gives do I give you.Do not let your heart be troubled,nor let it be fearful!! amen.Blessing to you Brother Derek!
 
If you want to relieve yourself of stress and increase your life expectancy, then learn to rest in Jesus' Shalom peace. Guard your heart against the cares of the world. And study what the Word says about the Lord's Supper. Jesus did not give us religion and rituals. The Lord's Supper is how He delivers His supernatural health and wholeness into our bodies. It reverses the effects of aging and decay in this realm and if you discern the Lord's body properly you will be strong, healthy and live long. The early church understand exactly what the Lord's Supper was all about. Unfortunately, many today despise the things of God because they are free and don't appear mighty in comparison to the things of this world. We have pictures of the Lord's Supper in the OT and what it would do when we actually had the fullness of it under the NC. Yet many Christians continue to shun the Lord's Supper thinking its just a ritual. Its not a ritual. Its how you receive more of Jesus perfect health and untiring life into your body. Too many Christians look to the ungodly of the world to better their health and to relieve stress. We should be looking God and the Word for those solutions. And they are right in the Bible. Sometimes we pray a little too much about the same things, when we should be studying the Word. The Bible is a "flight manual" and has every answer to every problem in this life. Jesus made us more than conquerors. We need to start acting and speaking like we are one, rather than helpless little children.
