The Nature's Messaged Me: Really?!?

Right after having my online teaching stunt early this morning, I went straight to sleep for about three hours to catch up on my lack of sleep. Then, I took my late lunch around 2:00 PM and decided to do my daily walking routine. As I was walking down the mountain trail, I saw this message transcribed on cardboard: "Getting stress out of your life, take more than prayer alone." I just took it as a sweet message from nature. Any new things that happened to your life today? What do you think this message means?

I think it means someone's mislaid their sign!

I think you are right. Perhaps the owner misplaced it.

@sharonelton I was thinking that it was the creation of a student and left it there for not having a good score at school.

Nothing new happened to my life. The sign means "help yourself and God will help you".

You are right. There is really something wrong with this phrase mentioned above.

I think it means God expects you to do your own part to help yourself. Not much going on here.

I can relate to that. I remembered that my religion teacher keeps on telling us that it is not enough to keep on praying to our God. We also need to take action.

Not quite clear what the message says Perhaps rather than just praying do something I have some health issue and am dealing with it

Even I'm still figuring out what the real meaning of this message is. I hope you are recuperating now. Is it?

Why haven't you been getting enough sleep, Shavkat? If you're having trouble falling asleep, you can ask your little brother or sister to hit you in the head with a rock... and rock you to sleep. The sign, to me, means to keep walking... and maybe you'll find the peace your life needs along the hiking trail I hope you have a wonderful day, my friend.

It was not able to sleep, but I need to wake up early for my morning classes. In addition, I need to prepare the pack lunch of my niece and wake her up to have her self-care, breakfast, etc. It is also the same thing with my youngest brother. They go to school together.

@Shavkat I'm sorry you're having trouble getting to sleep. You're a good uncle/brother.

I think it means god shouldn't be expected to do everything for you, that some of the effort should come from you as well.

You are on point with this matter. That is the problem for some people. They blame our Almighty God for not having what they desire through their prayers. They should also take some actions to attain them.

It is indeed true that prayers can connect us to people who are in heaven now and give thanks to God for guiding us.

Was that message in the wood? I think it means you can pray but you also must do something for yourself.

I was also thinking that it could be done by oneself. I do not know who put it here. It is my first time to see it today.
