Stress and It's Effects On our Health (1063 hits)

John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid."
It is no secret that stress affects our health in a big way. Scientists are now able to measure and weigh the chemicals produced by the brain during stress. Endorphins are " rivers of pleasure" that flow when we are happy, such as the expression"whatever melts your butter," Catecholamines are the "rivers of stress" that flow when our car stops on a dark deserted road and we are alone. It's been proven that when these stress hormones flow too much, we get:
*high blood pressure
*Ulcers and the like
*Immune system goes hay wire
Drug addicts artificially prod the brain to produce more endorphins, which often leaves drug abusers with "pleasure center burnout"-they have used up today's and tomorrow's endorphins and now cannot feel any pleasure, like rubbing a spot on your skin until it is numb.
When we are under stress, such as fear, hate, resentment, sarcasm, too much to do in too little time, or low self-esteem; then less endorphins flow and more catecholamines flow.
Philippians 4:6 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with Thanksgiving, present your requests to God.And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
