Sermon Title:   Stress

Key verse:
 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these
things shall be added to you.  Matthew 6:33

Key thought:  We must take every thought captive.  God didn’t design us to live a life of
worry or a stressful life.

Key points:

*  Stress is sin – it affects everyone around you.

*  Recognize God’s sovereignty.  Proverbs 3:5 tells us “Trust in the LORD with all your
heart, and lean not on your own understanding”.

*  Remember that God assumes full responsibility for our needs when we obey Him.

*  We must remove things from our life that cause us stress and make God our #1 priority.

*  Rest your body – you do not always need to be doing something.  Let your mind relax
and unwind.

*  Rejoice in the Lord.

Final thought:  You only get one life on this earth and you only have one physical heart.  
Take care of it!
