Stop Trying to Fix Everything Yourself - Do This Instead

Mister Brown

Ever feel like life is moving too fast, or stress is catching up with you? In this Connecting Faith & Life episode, I share a personal story about facing overwhelm, struggling to sleep, and trying to handle things on my own before finally turning to God in prayer. Looking at King Jehoshaphat’s story in 2 Chronicles 20, we learn that it is okay to be honest and admit when we do not know what to do. Join me, as we discuss why keeping our eyes on God changes everything when life feels out of control.

Watch now, and share this with a friend or family member who needs encouragement today!


Questions for personal reflection or discussion:

When was the last time you felt completely overwhelmed, and what was your initial reaction?

King Jehoshaphat openly admitted he was afraid before seeking God. Why do you think it is often hard for us to admit when we are scared or helpless?

What is something in your life that you need to bring directly to God in prayer today?

How can keeping your eyes on God change your perspective even if your circumstances do not immediately change?
