Escaping and Coping

Yall miss me? This week’s episode is about this improper balancing act I’m doing with being a working stay-at-home mom, wife, social worker, and all the things. I am finally getting some details kinked out regarding my recording, editing, and publishing schedule for the podcast. And also coming up with realistic goals to get y’all in the door to be interviewed on the podcast! I explore my reservations about processing emotions, and the importance of making ROOM for them so that I don’t slip into overwhelmed, emotional exhaustion, decision fatigue, anxiety, etc. which leads inevitably ESCAPISM. Takeaways: Starve your flesh. Make a REGULAR practice of fasting and prayer. Self control is a fruit of the spirit. When we are creating environments that house suppression of our emotions, lack of self care, disconnection from God, and other negative habits, we lead ourselves closer to burnout and escapism. We must be vigilent and of sober mind in order to be equipped for the fight of our faith. Scriptures mentioned: Romans 12:2. "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Psalms 16:5-11 You, Lord, are all I have, and you give me all I need; my future is in your hands. How wonderful are your gifts to me; how good they are! Matthew 17:21 – “However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” Luke 14:27 "Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple" Matthew 16:24 "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me" Romans 8:13 ... 13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. 2 Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." Corinthians10:13. “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. Godis faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” POD WEBSITE: Want to leave a review?
