Bringing Your Burdens to God - Paul M. Williams

Matthew 26:36-45 According to NHS data, there has been a 28% increase in the number of hospital admissions for stress and anxiety in the past decade.  Between, 2017 and 2018, there were 595,000 cases reported in the UK relating to work-based stress.  However, it's not just in the workplace, everywhere one look's, people are under pressure.  In one of the biggest surveys into the impact of stress; the results showed that three in four Britons have at least on one occasion over the last year (2018), been so stressed that they have felt overwhelmed or unable to cope.  Undoubtedly, much of this stress and anxiety I'm sure can be alleviated by slowing down the pace but the fact of the matter is, some of it cannot be helped.  Where pressure increases, there must be an avenue for that pressure to escape; and the God-given means for the child of God, to bear the burdens given us by God is prayer!
