God: Triune in Essence and Actuality

The term stress is a common-language term applied to many kinds of common scenarios. Phrases such as "that stresses me out", "Stress caused the fracture on the back hanger", and "she suffered a stress fracture of her finger" pretty much all say the same kind of thing: some force outside of tolerable limits has caused a catastrophic failure in a component, element, or system of one degree or another.
