Stop Worrying and Put Down the Tool Box
from Life Coach 180 Hosted by Dj Lopez
There is something tender about the way worry shows up. It rarely barges in announcing itself. It whispers. It nudges. It tightens your chest and stiffens your shoulders. It convinces you that if you just fix one more thing, think one more thought, anticipate one more “what if,” you will finally feel safe. So we reach for our tools. We measure outcomes that haven’t happened. We tighten bolts that aren’t loose. We rehearse conversations that may never occur. And somewhere in all that fixing, we lose our peace. Anxiety is not proof that everything is falling apart. Often, it is simply asignal — a warning light on the dashboard of the soul. It tells us something needs attention, not immediate construction. Sometimes the most spiritual, most courageous thing you can do is set the toolbox down and step back. So are you ready? Let’s go! The psalmist in Book of Psalms46:1–3 did not deny chaos. He acknowledged earthquakes, roaring waters,trembling mountains — yet he declared, “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-presenthelp in trouble.” The circumstances did not change first. His posture did. Website with resources:https://lifecoach180.org/?p=2881
