Stress, word for the modern world, everyone has too much of it
Synonymical cousins: worry, frustration, and impatience
Vacation sometimes causes it
Sociologists and Psychologist make a lot of money because of it
Jesus never was described as stressed
Jesus was tempted in every way as we are -
Hebrews 4:15
How did he conquer stress? He was not alone -
John 16:31-32
Allowing stress to overwhelm us is sin - focus on ourselves
It tempts us to let our emotions lead over our convictions
Worry - always be thousands of reasons to worry - still sin
Frustration - thing don't go the way we think it should - we need faith
We too can overcome stress - we too are not alone
