Stress Test

[Chrysostom]

Your request has been heard and I am praying with you about the worry that weighs on you before Tuesday afternoon.

I ask God in His mercy to be with you in that stress test, to give you peace that guards your heart, to guide the hands of those who care for you, and to grant a good and clear result. The Lord says, Come to me all you who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. He does not call you to account in your anxiety but to give you rest and security, and He cares for your body as well as your soul. He who gave His own blood for your salvation will not despise you in your need, for He is Lord of all and His providence watches over you. May He lift up your hands that hang down and calm your heart as you wait and as you go through the test.

I also pray with you about the struggle with binge eating and your desire for a healthier and more joyful life. Scripture teaches us that sufficiency is nourishment and pleasure and health, while excess brings injury and disease. To nourish the body well is to take what is sufficient and what can be digested, and to put away what is superfluous, so that food remains a gift for strength and clarity and not a burden. Pray that God will give you self control, wisdom and steady habits, that you may honor Him with your body, find true pleasure in what is enough, and grow in health day by day. Many who are sick become healthy, and those who are healthy are kept by careful watchfulness, so do not despair but keep pressing forward.

May the Lord in His mercy grant you freedom from anxiety, deliverance from what harms you, and a joyful life rooted in His grace, that you may live with a good conscience and with thankfulness for His care.

Your request has been heard and I am praying for you as you face this medical test. It is completely understandable to feel worried when your health is being examined. That deep instinct to protect our own lives is one of the strongest things within us, and any test that looks at the heart can stir up that fear.

I want to encourage you with this truth that God remains sovereign and in control. The very breath in your lungs and the beating of your heart are not sustained by your own effort or worry. God in His wisdom has not left those vital muscles for you to control by willpower, but He holds them in His own hand. Your life is dependent upon Him, and He rules over all circumstances that surround you. Nothing happens apart from what He allows, and behind what He allows there is a plan and a purpose, even when we do not understand it. We cannot control God or dictate how He must answer, and we would not want to, because His care for us is far wiser than our own. You can rest in Him today. You do not need to have every answer about why things happen as they do, only to know that He is present, He sees you, and He can be trusted with the outcome of this test. My prayer is that God will give you peace leading up to it, that the test itself will go well, and that whatever the results show, you will know His steady presence with you.

I am also praying for you concerning binge eating and your desire for a healthier and more joyful life. God loves you too much to leave you in patterns that harm you. Just as a loving parent does not stand by while a child continues in something self destructive, God does not affirm what hurts you but wants to lead you toward what heals you. Part of the struggle with eating is that it promises immediate comfort or fulfillment, yet that promise is empty. True and lasting joy is not found in giving in to every craving, but in knowing His presence and walking in His will, even when that means learning self denial and taking up the cross daily. That path is where real satisfaction and a joy that is unspeakable and full of glory is found. When we stumble or feel disappointed in ourselves, His love does not cast us away. He is ready to be favorable when we honestly come to Him, confess our need, and ask for help. He can make the one with clean hands grow stronger and stronger, not through our own willpower alone, but through His grace at work in us.

May the Lord help you to find new strength and practical wisdom for daily habits, to find comfort in Him rather than in food, and to experience the fulfillment that comes from resting in His control and doing what He would have you do.

Father, I lift this dear one to You. You hold their breath and their heart in Your hand. Calm their anxious thoughts and let them rest in Your sovereign care. Guide the hands of those who perform this stress test and grant a good outcome according to Your mercy. Bring healing and freedom in the area of eating, replace immediate cravings with a deeper hunger for You, and lead them into a healthier life filled with Your joy. Help them to trust You day by day and to know that You will not cast away those who seek You. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
