I Don’t Know Who Needs to Hear This, But You’re Carrying Too Much
Stress is everywhere for professionals today — deadlines, meetings, family duties, and the constant buzz of phones. Scripture offers powerful tools to calm the heart and redirect the mind. When you take a verse and turn it into a daily affirmation, it becomes something you can carry into the office, the commute, or even the boardroom.
1. Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, 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.”
Affirmation: “I release my worries to God. His peace guards my heart and mind today.”
Write this on a card. Glance at it before a big meeting or after reading stressful emails.
2. Isaiah 41:10
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
Affirmation: “I am not alone. God strengthens me and holds me up.”
Keep this on your desk or dashboard. It’s a steady reminder when you feel stretched too thin.
3. Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
Affirmation: “I bring my burdens to Christ. He gives me true rest.”
Pull this card out at lunch break or in the evening when your body feels heavy with stress.
