In my last blog I listed 7 main faith integration topics without subcategories. The subcategories will be used to expand the list and show how it relates to scripture in all my future blogs.
Today's subcategory is S-T-R-E-S-S. Stress expands the topics of subject matter from a faith perspective, and Christian world view and life view. Below is what I found in scripture about stress, which every student deals with on a daily basis, and why it should be part of faith integration.
Stress was promised (James 1:2)
"Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials"
Stress has a purpose (james 1:3-4)
"knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurnace and let endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
Stress leads to prayer (James 1:5-6)
"But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea driven and tossed by the wind."
