It’s about that time of year where stress levels are increasing and our energy is decreasing. Between school, jobs, homework, midterm exams and everything in between, it’s easy to become frustrated and to feel defeated. This week, remember who holds you in the palm of His hand. Reach out to God and pray for an overwhelming relief of comfort, joy, restoration, peace and guidance during this time. He will lead your path and give you rest. He will comfort you in your sadness, restore you in your weakest state, and give you comfort when you feel anxious. Through faith in Him, a stressful week will become an easily achieved task.
