What if the reason you feel restless has nothing to do with your schedule… and everything to do with the noise?

Not just loud noise. Not chaos.

The constant hum. The dings. The alerts. The background stimulation you barely notice anymore.

Casinos use constant sound to keep people engaged and overstimulated. Bells, music, celebratory tones. It keeps people hooked. And while most of us are not sitting at slot machines, we are living in our own version of that environment every single day.

From smart speakers responding to commands, to text notifications, email banners, game sounds, and endless background TV, we are surrounded by continuous stimulation. And it is doing something to us.

Scripture (NIV):

John 14:27 – “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”
