Since we cannot escape from stress, we must learn how to respond to it in a healthy way. We must also learn how to free ourselves from toxic emotions. This is where Godly Trust comes in. Godly Trust is the first of the eight laws of health. Godly Trust is the only true remedy for stress. If you are ever going to find rest in stress, you must anchor the ship of your life to something outside of yourself. You must build on something stronger and tougher than you are. The foundation that you build on must be immovable. It must be able to withstand a 9.5 magnitude earthquake, a death in the family, a foreclosure and any other disaster that comes your way. If you trust in your job, you can lose it; a spouse, they can leave you; a house, it can be foreclosed; your money, the stock market can crash. You see everything in this life is transitory, it’s not guaranteed. Trust in divine power is the only thing that comes with a guarantee. Why? Because God is self sustaining and all life is derived from Him. He has no beginning nor does He have an end. His very word is what holds up this earth and prevents it from spiraling out of control. He’s omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing), and omnipresent (everywhere at the same time). I mean what can truly beat that.
Happy Sabbath
