Overcoming Anxiety: Letting Go of What You Can't Control with Benjamin Lundquist - RAL 95

from Rise and Lead · host Benjamin Lundquist

On this episode, Overcoming Anxiety: Letting Go of What You Can't Control, Benjamin talks about what is feels like to battle anxiety - those moments when you’re sitting in your car, frozen by fear, feeling unseen, overwhelmed, and unsure how to move forward. He unpacks how to re-frame anxiety, anchor your identity in God, clarify control, and find hope by simply doing the next right thing. You’ll learn how to stop obsessing over what you can’t control, take responsibility for what you can, and walk by faith even when it’s hard. This episode is a reminder that you are not alone, God is with you in the middle of your struggle. And with a perspective shift and few tools things can and will get better. Anxiety is not your identity and not your future. Episode Quote: "Every ounce of energy you pour into things outside your control is energy stolen from what God actually put in your hands - your habits, your faith, your assignment. That's the heart of this teaching - you need to surrender what is out of your control and give your full focus and attention to the assignment in front of you. If you can't do anything about it, why are you wasting time obsessing about it. “Your time is too valuable and your calling too sacred to waste it on what you can’t change.” This episode, like all Rise and Lead Podcast episodes, is highly practical and motivating.
