InPsalm 55: 16-22God reminds us that His shoulders are wide enough to carry our burdens. Through His sovereignty, He is more than capable of working out our problems and meeting all of our needs, if we surrender those needs to Him.

As for me, I call to God,and theLordsaves me.Evening,morningand noonI cry out in distress, and he hears my voice (Psalm 55: 16).

Cast your cares on theLordand he will sustain you; he will never letthe righteous be shaken. (Psalm 55:22)

In this week's discussion we consider topics that brings many couples and families tremendous joy (bringing new life into the world) as well as stress, worry, and anxiety (potential complications during pregnancy and birth, postpartum adjustment). For this optional discussion post, please reflect on what these versus mean to you. What do these versus teach us about how we should approach challenging and stressful situations?

Feel to share other relevant scriptures that provide guidance on dealing with anxiety and facing challenges.
