The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. (1 Corinthians 3:17)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. (Galatians 5:22-24)

Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. (Proverbs 16:3)
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul. (Psalms 94:19)
“Stress primarily comes from not taking action over something that you can have some control over. So, if I find that some particular thing is causing me to have stress, that’s a warning flag for me. What it means is there’s something that I haven’t completely identified, perhaps in my conscious mind, that is bothering me, and I haven’t yet taken any action on it. I find as soon as I identify it, and make the first phone call, or send off the first e-mail message, or whatever it is that we’re going to do to start to address that situation — even if it’s not solved — the mere fact that we’re addressing it dramatically reduces any stress that might come from it. So, stress comes from ignoring things that you shouldn’t be ignoring, I think in large part. So, stress doesn’t come… people get stress wrong all the time in my opinion. Stress doesn’t come from hard work, for example. You know, you could be working incredibly hard, and loving it; and likewise, you could be out of work and incredibly stressed over that. So… and likewise, if you kind of use that as an analogy for what I was just talking about; if you are out of work, but you are going through a disciplined approach of a series of job interviews and working to remedy that situation you are going to be a lot less stressed than if you are just worrying about it and doing nothing.”
