Stress

What is stress? Why do we get stressed? Can we overcome our stress? Stress is a state of mental or emotional strain or tension resulting from adverse or very demanding circumstances. Stress can be really hard on us, especially those in demanding and challenging high schools. I'm not sure why other people get stressed, but I can bet, like me, they get stressed over school work. Balancing sports, academics, and other extracurriculars. There are different ways to deal with stress. Some people choose to drop a course or maybe stop playing a sport. Some people, God forbid, choose self harm and other hurtful acts. But I choose to turn to God. Praying is a great way to release stress. You can put all your worries away and just focus on praying. God can help you deal with stress. There is a verse in the bible that Jesus says: "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible." (Mark 10:27) Maybe you, by yourself can not overcome with stress, but with the help of God you can.
