175 | What Binds Us Christians Together? A Story of Servant Leadership With Mka. Jennifer Levine
What do you do when you're feeling overwhelmed and negativity is starting to cloud your joy? Can you remind yourself that things will not always seem as they are right now? Do you remember to empower yourself? We can feel empowered and co-create with God.
Yes, there may be circumstances we might not be able to change, and yes, the natural response is to be overwhelmed. But we all have a choice.
If we see something that's emotionally negative and continue to view it as negative, we will stay in the same headspace. If, on the other hand, we interrupt the pattern and switch to JOY, then our brain will follow the same pattern and continue to think about joy. It is remarkable. We can take a few breaths and pace ourselves into the next moment and then the next after that.
Mka, Jennifer Levine is a wonderful example of putting this into practice. She is a military and priest-chaplain's wife, knowing that she needs to co-create with God and lean into joy, moment by moment.
