“Come to him in prayer today and get away from it all. Offload those
stresses onto his shoulders. Your soul will find rest in God. Your hope comes
from him.”
Psalm 62:5 (NIV)
Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes
from him.
1. Decision-making becomes difficult.
2. Frequent spells of brooding and feelings of inadequacy.

4. Thoughts trail off while speaking or writing.

6. Sudden outbursts of temper.
7. Mistrust of friends and family.
8. Forgetfulness.
9. Excessive daydreaming or fantasizing about "getting away from it all."
Do you ever go to bed at night exhausted after a hard day’s slog only to wake up at the wonder hour of 3.00 am, wondering why you can’t sleep? Too many of us overload our lives with too many duties, activities and responsibilities that induce stress. More often than not, this stress leads to anxiety and fears that the job won’t get done in time or that you will fail in your efforts. Stress and overload result in fatigue and mental illness. Beware!
Jesus was preaching and teaching every day of the week, traveling – on foot – many, many miles to reach as many people as possible. Performing miracles and healing the sick, I think Jesus had a stressful job. Yet we often read how he got away from it all up a mountain to rest and pray. Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Granted, he was probably referring to the labour of attempting to follow the many legal requirements of the Law of Moses, but I believe we can apply his word within the context of our daily life, too.
Remember, Jesus said, “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” The Holy Spirit is your helper and your guide. So, come to him in prayer today and get away from it all. Offload those stresses onto his shoulders for he cares for you. Your soul will find rest in God. Your hope comes from him.
God-tracking is getting away from it all.

“Thank you, O Lord, that you care for me and have the power to rescue me from y stress and overload.”
“Dear Lord, I feel so overloaded at the moment. Too much work, too much responsibility! I choose to commit my work to you and seek your strength and help to get the job done. I come to you now in prayer and cast my cares upon you. Thank you, O Lord, that you care for me and have the power to rescue me from my stress and overload. My soul finds rest in you for my hope comes from you. Amen.”
