1 Peter 5:7 (NLT) Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.
In order to have a stress free life, we have to cast our cares on the Lord. However, we can’t cast our cares on the Lord without first trusting in the Lord to handle our cares and concerns. Most of us don’t trust someone we don’t know. The same is true with God. We can’t fully trust God without knowing Who He is. We get to know God by reading His Word. We can’t believe the things written in the Bible about God without having faith in His Word. Faith doesn’t come automatically. We develop faith by continuously hearing the Word of God. The very first step of faith is believing and accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. Without that initial step of faith, nothing else will work.
The root to a stress free life is hearing, receiving, and applying the Word of God in every area of our life.
Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
