To Be Poured Into Us...

It is common for us to deal with stress on the average week. Most of us would probably define stress as feeling anxiety about not having enough time to get something done, enough money to pay the bills, or enough skill to accomplish a looming task. Look at this interesting promise...
"The Lord gives his people strength. The Lord blesses them with peace". -Psalm 29:11
It is the Lord who gives strength and peace. That is an interesting paradox isn't it? Most people would not think that strength and peace go together. But they do when our Lord serves it up! Do you think that if we all had large and daily doses of strength and peace simultaneously that it would reduce our stress? Perhaps its time to request and expect strength and peace TO BE POURED INTO US.
