Stress
Amplified Bible
Philippians 4:6-7
6Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance
and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with
thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
7And
God's peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured
of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and
being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that
peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount
guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Romans 5:3-4
3Moreover [let us also be full of joy now!] let us exult and triumph in our
troubles and rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that pressure and
affliction and hardship produce patient and unswerving endurance.
4And
endurance (fortitude) develops maturity of character (approved faith
and tried integrity). And character [of this sort] produces [the
habit of] joyful and confident hope of eternal salvation.
Psalm 62:1-2
1FOR GOD alone my soul waits in silence; from Him comes my salvation.
2He
only is my Rock and my Salvation, my Defense and my Fortress, I
shall not be greatly moved.
