There are many causes of stress: problems with family, death of a loved one, finances, differences in beliefs and values with a spouse or others, a family member in an institution or prison, an illness of self or others, being a single parent, divorce, and the list goes on.
100% of my stress is due to not trusting in God’s plan. 100%.
Whether it is financial, parenting, health, work, or my marriage, when I do the best I can and turn it over to God, I am at peace.
Otherwise, I have stress. It has nothing to do with the amount of work, or unfinished prjects, or anything specific to this world. It is a spiritual issue for me.
