Stress - An outside force applying pressure.


34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:34 NIV)


1. Learn to manage your monkeys.


Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7 NIV)


2. Be cool with your own cucumbers.


Comparison is the thief of joy.” - Theodore Roosevelt


Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. (Hebrews 12:1-2 NIV)


25“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? (Matthew 6:25 NIV)
