There’s no denying that 2020 was a stressful year for many, regardless of age. And 2021 has had its own share of stress. But even with a year chock full of collective stresses, that doesn’t mean individual stresses simply disappear. As we age, we have to deal with different things that can be stressors.

Each situation can create distinctive challenges, and people of faith who are able to keep up with spiritual disciplines may find that those challenges are easier to face.
