Anxiety, stress, worry and concern are the key contributors to the epidemic of mental illness that is enveloping our western society. It is little wonder that many turn to drugs, alcohol and other destructive supposed solutions to escape their troubles. While these might temporarily take our mind off the problems or make us feel invincible for a short time there is no doubt that they compound the problem and make things worse. Tensions rise, tempers flare and people turn on themselves and each other as the spiral downwards exaggerates the situation.
Compare this with the peace and joy that the presence of Jesus brings to those who turn to Him in times of turmoil. Looking on from the outside it may seem an incredible claim but for those who are willing to trust Him and put their life in His hands they are not disappointed.
