Find Peace in the Burnout | The Gift of Advent Part 2
About This Message
Speaker: David Reneau
Summary:
Are you tired of living in a constant state of "fight or flight"? Stress and anxiety can feel like poison, leading to physical exhaustion and burnout. But you don't have to live that way.
In Part 2 of our Advent series, we explore the second gift Jesus brings us: Peace—a state of wholeness, calm, and renewal. We look at the story of Joseph (Matthew 1), who was consumed by anxiety with the unexpected pregnancy of his young girlfriend.
Your anxiety comes from what you can't control. We dive into Philippians 4:6-7 to learn how to actively surrender that stress to God and receive the peace that transcends all understanding.
To find peace in Jesus, do these three things:
Remember that God is for you and everything is in his control.
Present your request to God with prayer and petition with thanksgiving.
Do what God has asked you to do and trust him with the rest.
Put your trust in the only source of true peace: Jesus Christ.
