Stressed spelled backwards is desserts. I think we could all use a little more dessert and less stress in our lives.
Stress is no fun, but if you really think about it, most of the thoughts we have that make us miserable aren't even true.
That means that I could and can spend time on better thoughts. Okay, I should work on that.
Stress- a biological reaction to adverse conditions or experiences that disturbs well-being.
Crisis- a stage in a sequence of events at which the trend of all future events, especially for better or for worse, is determined; turning point.
All relationships have stressers, and all families experience crisis. A crisis can do amazing things for a family. It can increase the trust between individuals, and bring the family closer as a whole. I know that after my family goes through something, we suddenly have new inside jokes and we rely on each other so much more. A crisis can also go the other way. It can cause a family to divide, but I am an optimist and I don't want to think like that.
Every family will experience their own crisis and they will be effected by different stressers. Every family is different.
God gave us trials for a reason. Without pain, there is no joy. Without stress, there is no growth.
Challenge: Look on the bright side of your trials. Try to see how you and those you love can benefit from the trial, or what you learn from the trial.
