Praising God when things are going well is easy, but how quick are you going to praise him when you feel overwhelmed? When your stress level is high, practice praising God for giving you the opportunity to grow. Let the strain you feel be a reminder to worship God for all he is doing in you and through you. As you do, God will use this practice to make you physically, spiritually, emotionally, and mentally healthier. You will be better able to sidestep the negative effects of stress while embracing all that God has in store for you in the future.

– Nelson Searcy and Jennifer Dykes Henson
