    S7 E8: Can't Sit Still | Racing Thoughts | Quiet Time

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 2, 2024 13:35


    God gives me incredible peace because I spend time in His Word and in prayer every day. Knowing that He guides my every step is a huge comfort and reassurance when I don't know what's next in my life. However, sometimes I sit down and cannot focus my thoughts. I can barely even pray! My mind is overactive and I am distracted constantly. So frustrating - what to do?? Don't write today off as "too busy"... if I do that I know exactly what will CONTINUE to happen. I beg God daily that He shows me how much I need Him and even humbles me to the point that I hold on even tighter. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jennifer-george6/support
