s example shows us how to navigate stressful situations prayerfully, trusting God through whom he experienced joy and peace.1. What have been some unhealthy ways you have dealt with stress? Do you blow up with anger?Do you freeze up with fear and anxiety? Do you give up in despair and discouragement?Do you shut down or try to escape? Do you busy yourself with work, activities, or entertainment to avoid stress? The pressures that we experience in our life can often come in between us in our relationships, including in our relationship with God. We would do well if we would allow those pressures to move towards God in prayer rather than allow to move us away from Him who is source of life, help and hope that we need.
