Listen now
Description
Have you ever seen another car driving near you start to drift off into another lane or even your lane? What was the first thing you thought (or maybe said out loud) about them?    “Stop being distracted and drive, pay attention to what you’re doing!” Something along those lines right…    Have you ever been talking to your kids about something very important when you start to see their gaze shift to something else and their hands begin to fidget?    What do you say to them next? “Can you please FOCUS on what I’m saying to you right now?!”    Well, I feel like this has happened to me a lot in my life, especially about living healthy, trying to change lifestyle habits, or practicing listening to what God is saying… I just feel distracted.    Can you relate? I tend to feel like I can’t focus for long enough and I feel like there are too many other things happening around me or inside my brain to give something, even God, my full attention.    Maybe you’ve felt this way too and realize what a hindrance it can be to creating the lasting lifestyle changes you want or truly going deeper in your relationship with God.    Listen in on today’s episode where I’m going to speak truth about some roots of distraction in our lives and how we can begin to change the way we think about living healthy and empowered!    Grab your Bible and Notebook because we’ll be diving into some scripture today and you don’t want to miss anything that the Lord has to share with you!    I pray you are encouraged and challenged as you pursue living a healthy and empowered life for His glory!    In Joy, Lauren    P.S.
