Stress

When all that pressure bears down upon you
And there seems to be nothing at all that you can do
Be more accepting of that final straw
For on Gods strength you can always draw

Like when every door seems to be shut
And you’re really seeing no way out of your rut
Call upon The One who is always at your side
For those who ask He will always provide

When all those bills just seem to be overdue
Taking a toll on your joy and making you feel blue
Just fall to your knees and ask Jesus to provide
For those who follow He has never denied

So if anything ever pushes you over your limit
Just say a little prayer for it will only take a minute
And as you offer up to Him all of that stress
You will find that its affects on you are far, far less
