This was a short book. I guess I was expecting more. But the reality of it is that there isn't much more. The answer to being stressed is to obey God. That is the answer, always has been the answer and always will be the answer. You don't need a lengthy book to relay that message.

This was a book that helped me a lot with a problem that I deal with on a daily basis. If anyone out there is facing stress I highly recommend this book for them.

Read for research. A lot of people in my church family like Joyce Meyer. I was not familiar with her, so I thought I'd try this. Not the sort of thing I would normally read.

Meyer's take on how to handle stress is charismatic, bordering on positive thinking and/or self-help manual. For a book written in 1998 she does strike me as being on the cutting edge (at least among evangelicals) on issues of trauma. Her theology of the prompting of the Holy Spirit was kind of annoying to me, but her broader point - that obedience in small things prepares us for obedience in larger things - is fair.

A short book covering the topic of stress, exhaustion and burn-out from a biblical point of view, in a depth that is astounding for a book of this length!! Somehow, Meyer hit all the spots when it comes to my specific struggles related to being stressed :'). Also includes scriptures about how God renews our strength <3

This was a short book but I liked its message that your energy should be spent on things for the Lord. That your body is a temple and you have to give it rest. Good Bible verses in it also.

God is everlasting and he would not take us through what we call prblems for nothing. There is a lesson learned with every crisis we encounter.
