"There's a big difference between quietly communing with the Father on a hilltop (solitude) and sharing communion with the enemy in our heads (isolation). One spiritually blesses and builds us up; the other spiritually bludgeons and bleeds us dry."

How do YOU handle stress and anxiety?

1 Peter 5: (NIV)

"Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings." (vv 8-9)
