Sleep Stress Free

Are you struggling to sleep? 

An article at the Daily Briefing cited the journal Nature on how sleep impacts our immune system, brain, heart, and more. We function better getting between 6.5 and 7.5 hours of sleep a night. Sleep deprivation costs most nations about 2 percent of their GDP. In America, that’s over $400 billion.

The human body requires sleep. Unfortunately, financial stress can disrupt it. Marital discord, fear of making it to the end of the month, or concern over a job can cause many to toss and turn at night. The same God who created us to need sleep knew that we couldn’t carry our burdens alone. Recognizing that we’d be confronted with many hardships in life, Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I’ll give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:28-29)

Peter told us to: “Cast all of our anxiety on him because he cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7) And the Apostle Paul said, “Don’t be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6-7)

The bottom Line? Trust the Lord and sleep stress-free! It will improve your life and your finances.
