FIND RELIEF FROM STRESS - Care for Your Spiritual Need

 "Happy are those conscious of their spiritual need." - MATTHEW 5:3.

Meaning: As humans, we need more than food, clothing, and shelter.  We  have a spiritual need.  To be  happy, we must be conscious of that need and attend to it.

.  Prayer can be a big help.  God invites you to "throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you ." (1 Peter 5:7) Prayer and wholesome meditation can result in deep inner peace. - PHILIPPIANS 4:6, 7. 

.  Read spiritually uplifting things.  The principles discussed in this magazine come from the Bible, which was written to satisfy our spiritual need. These also foster "practical wisdom and thinking ability." (Proverbs 3:21) Why not set a goal to read the Bible?  The book of Proverbs might be a good place  to start.
