Omg...

I'm getting so frustrated with this blog of ours but whatever.

So, I would like to share my inputs on this past bible study of "The Original Sin".
It was freakin' awesome!! I loved it and I was thankful that I didn't missed it. It just opened my eyes and everything made sense. I shared it with one person already and hopefully I can share it with many more. Starting with my family. For those of you wondering what it is... I can't help you on that. You're just gonna have to find out for your selves. It's a whole thick packet so I won't post it up. Google it. But here's a verse to always remember during hardship.

PSALM 23

¹ The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

² He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

³ he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

⁴ Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

⁵ You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

⁶ Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

AMEN!

Trial by Fire: How to De-stress and Not Distress in Difficult Times
by Dr. Randy Carlson

“Americans are stressed out, and they are dealing with that stress in an unhealthy way.”Those are the words of Helen Mitternight, spokesperson for the American Psychological Association’s Practice Directorate which, in partnership with the National Women’s Health Resource Center and iVillage.com, conducted a telephone survey that serves as a ringing wake up call for people dealing with stress. The news isn’t good. The poll of over 2,100 adults, taken earlier this year, showed that people overwhelmingly react to work and family stress by engaging in distinctly bad behaviors– such as comfort eating, making poor diet choices, smoking and inactivity– and are more likely to report hypertension, anxiety, depression or obesity.

Women, the survey indicated, describe feelings of nervousness, wanting to cry or lacking energy; men were more likely to experience sleeplessness or increased expressions of irritability and anger. About 12 percent more women than men said they coped with stress by eating – a practice that actually birthed fatigue, insomnia, and guilt, adding to their perceived stress.

Jesus Christ actually affirmed that your life would be burdened by stress; not exactly an encouraging word. But His statement was also punctuated with a promise of hope in John 16:33. “But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

As a Christian, you have the incredible resource of God’s presence and power to help you cope with stress. Tapping into that resource, though, requires some work on your part. But listen – I guarantee that if you put in the effort on the front-end to consistently access Him, the personal payoff on the back-end will be a “de-stressed,” not distressed, existence. You’ll be happier, healthier, and your intimacy with God will grow.Here are four practical, Biblical responses to the stress in your life:

1. Live intentionally
2. Pray about all things
3. Don’t allow your emotions to run your life
4. Don’t overreact, but think things through
