Isaiah 40:27–31; Matthew 6:24–34; Luke 10:38–42; Philippians 4:4–7
We can trace many of our battles with common problems, such as insomnia, obesity, alcohol and drug addiction, pessimism, and headaches to deep-seated unrest in our souls. What nervous, tense creatures we are! Surely God did not design our bodies to endure such self-imposed stress. Nor does this intensity represent the way His children should model His message of peace.
In this message think along scriptural guidelines as we rediscover a life characterized by rest instead of rush, calm instead of confusion, peace instead of panic, tranquility instead of turmoil.
