I Peter 5:6-7
School work and stress seem to come hand in hand. It’s kind of like a direct relationship - an increase in school brings an increase in stress (ok, maybe not as a blanket rule… just speaking from my own experience). This morning was rough. One of the most stressful and frustrating things for me is not necessarily an abundance of work that has to be done, but not having the slightest understanding of the work that must be done… I was a little (ok, a lot) lost in Statistics this morning. I was getting frustrated just because I was sitting there trying to understand what my professor was trying to say, but not having the slightest bit of understanding. It was… stressful.
With that in mind, here is an encouraging thought from 1 Peter 5:6-7…
“Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
Think about it… it’s not that deep or hard to understand. God cares and God is capable. Give Him your cares, concerns, stresses, and worries.
