8 Sunday A: Liturgical Prayers

A. Like the Lilies in the Field
B. Throw Your Worries on the Lord

Greeting (See Rom 8:38)

Neither life nor death,
neither the present nor the future
nor any creature can separate us
from the love of God our Father.
He has shown us this love in Jesus.
May the Lord Jesus Christ be always with you.
R/ And also with you.

8 Sunday A: Worry and Stress in Today's World

Note: Though worry and stress are not the same and many people have greater pressure  to handle in daily life and yet are not highly stressed, because of a simple formula: S=P>R. Stress is equal to Pressure greater than your Resources. Prayer, family, relaxation, fulfilling hobbies, etc can be your resources that can handle your stress. As much as we need some amount of anxiety to be prepared for life and do a good job, we need some amount of stress (Eustress is positive stress,

Distress is negative stress) to face the daily chores and issues and do a good job. The weight of a key in your hand may be 25 grams, but how long you hold it in your hand determines stress. So it's not the type of stress that matters, but how long you are nursing it in your heart and mind without dealing with it causes stress and damage to your body and mind.
