241: Worry-Free Living: 6 Tips to Help You Cast Your Cares and Embrace Peace, Joy and Gratitude Instead (Bonus Episode)

Join me today as I discuss my struggle with worry and anxiety, specifically regarding my aging parents. I explore the negative effects of worrying on our bodies and identify five common triggers for anxiety. I share 6 practical tips to deal with worry, including seeking God's guidance, practicing gratitude, and choosing thoughts carefully. Throughout the episode, I provide personal examples and relevant Bible verses to encourage you to find peace, joy, and a healthier perspective in the midst of uncertainty. I encourage you to make your own CAN / CAN'T CONTROL LIST and then to surrender those things you cannot control to God. He will do all the CARING and CARRYING for you! Target verses (some paraphrased): Matthew 6:33: Seek God's kingdom and His righteousness above all else. 1 Peter 5:7: Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Philippians 4:6-7: Do not be anxious but to present your requests to God with thanksgiving. Joshua 1:8: Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night. Isaiah 41:10: Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Philippians 4:8: Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Jeremiah 6:16: Thus says the LORD: 'Stand by the roads, and look, and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls. Colossians 3:2: Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
