When blind Bartimaeus was crying out to Jesus for help saying, "Jesus, Son of David have mercy on me!" the Bible tells us that Many people who heard him warned him to keep quiet. (Mark 10:48)
Now chances are that these people who were telling him to keep quiet were not suffering with his problem of blindness.
Chances are also that they were not sitting at the side of the road begging but they had jobs and they had just come to see Jesus.
Therefore if you are stressed by a problem, do not listen to people who tell you to stop looking for a solution especially if they cannot solve your problem and they are not suffering from a similar problem.
Instead of listening to such people, heed the Bible for it says, Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened. (Matthew 7:7)
If people start telling or warning or threatening you to stop asking or seeking or knocking be like Bartimaeus for the Bible tells us that when he was warned and told to keep quiet, He cried out even more. (Mark 10:48)
So when your haters, and they are your haters because people who love you would not tell you to stop asking Jesus for help, tell you to stop asking, seeking or knocking for a solution, make it a point to put more effort in your asking, seeking and knocking to ensure your stressful problem is solved.
