You're tired. Stressed. Discouraged. And you're wondering why life still feels so heavy—even when you're doing “all the right things.” In this message, Pastor Eric Thomas challenges you to stop just coming to church and start using what God gave you. God is not just powerful—He's personal. The same God who created the galaxies created you… and He has features you're not tapping into. Stop fighting with your own strength. Let the Good Shepherd carry you.

"Why my soul are you so downcast? Why so disturbed within me?" (Psalm 43:5)

Have you ever battled that sinking feeling of discouragement while trying to change your relationship with alcohol? That overwhelming sense that maybe your efforts don't matter, that progress seems impossible, or that your excuses are simply too powerful to overcome?In this deeply vulnerable episode, I share my recent struggle with discouragement in my own ministry. Despite years of helping women find freedom from alcohol dependence, I found myself questioning if my work was making any difference—if anyone even cared about the message of alcohol freedom. This raw conversation reveals how discouragement functions not just as an emotion, but as one of the enemy's most powerful weapons against our growth and freedom.Discouragement thrives on fear, doubt, and obstacles. It zeroes in on our vulnerabilities and tries to blind us to the truth of who we are and whose we are. The enemy wants us to fixate on our failures, forget God's goodness, and believe we're incapable of meaningful change. But there's profound hope in recognizing this spiritual attack for what it is.Whether you're just beginning to question your relationship with alcohol or you're well along your sobriety journey, this episode offers comfort, solidarity, and practical wisdom for those moments when discouragement threatens to derail your progress. Remember: God's grace is sufficient, His power is made perfect in weakness, and with His help, you can push through even the toughest days.Walking with Purpose Catholic Women's Bible Study: https://walkingwithpurpose.com/bible-study/Drop us a Question or CommentBreak free from alcohol with Christ-centered guidance, community support, and powerful tools.

Hello to you Indivisible Whidbey activists listening  in Oak Harbor, Coupeville, Greenbank, Freeland, Langley, Bayview, and Clinton on Whidbey Island, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.  On Friday 18th April, 2025 I posted my 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday episode entitled “What Difference Can 1 Ordinary Person Make?” about Granny D Haddock who walked across America in her 90th year to bring attention to campaign finance reform. Click HERE to access that episode.As Granny D walked across America she was asked to speak at rallies, churches, community gatherings, and the like. The following is a short piece from a speech Granny D delivered at the Buck Jackson Rodeo Arena in Pecos, Texas on May 14th, 1999:“Never be discouraged from being an activist because people tell you that you'll not succeed. You have already succeeded if you're out there representing truth or justice or compassion or fairness or love. You already have your victory because you are changing the world; you are changing the status quo; you are changing the chemistry of things. And changes will spread from you, will be easier to happen again in others because of you because, believe it or not you with your activism are the center of the world.”  CTA: Maybe like me you are coming to realize that activist work is not a job, but a calling to work together. We are called to work together to make the world a better place for all of us doing what we can with what we have for as long as we are needed.Thank you for listening and being one of us!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Feeling stuck, frustrated, or like nothing you're doing is working? Discouragement is part of every growth journey—but how you handle it determines whether you break through or give up. In this episode, Dr. Aziz reveals the hidden reasons why we feel discouraged and how your mind is wired to shut you down when challenges arise. Learn the powerful questions you must ask yourself to shift from discouraged to determined and keep making progress toward your goals. If you've ever felt like giving up, listen now—this episode could change everything. ------------------ We've all been there: feeling excited, optimistic, and ready to take on the world, only to face moments of discouragement. The truth is, on any growth journey, there will be highs and lows. The key to lasting success lies not in avoiding those lows but in how you handle them when they come. The Power of Staying in the Game Just like in investing, success in confidence-building isn't about timing the market—it's about time in the market. In other words, consistency is what matters. If you're committed to growing your confidence, it's not about doing something quickly and checking it off your list. It's about staying in the process, even when things get tough. But here's the catch: the more action you take, the more likely you are to face discouragement. That's by design. When you start actively putting yourself out there—whether it's in dating, your career, or speaking up more in meetings—you open yourself up to setbacks. And when those setbacks happen, that discouragement can feel like a ton of bricks. Why Does Discouragement Hit So Hard? Discouragement hits hardest when you start to face your fears and take risks. When you're playing it safe, like I did in my own life during my battle with social anxiety, you can avoid discouragement. But once you start stepping up, putting yourself out there, and truly engaging in the process, discouragement is inevitable. Why? Because there's a part of you—the safety police—that wants to avoid discomfort at all costs. When you try something new, especially if it's a risk, that part of you freaks out and says, Whoa, stop, stay small, stay safe. That's when the discouragement feels so intense. It's designed to make you stop, retreat, and never try again. Shifting Your Response to Discouragement Here's the crucial point: How you respond to discouragement will determine how far you go on your confidence journey. If you give in to it and retreat, you'll never see the growth you want. But if you can push through and keep going, that's when the real transformation happens. To break through discouragement, here's what you need to do: Name What's Happening: When you feel discouraged, recognize it for what it is. Acknowledge that the discouragement is real but doesn't define you. It's just part of the process. Get Compassionate with Yourself: Take a moment to connect with yourself. Put one hand on your chest, one on your belly, and take deep breaths. Acknowledge the discouragement with compassion—Yeah, it feels tough right now, but that doesn't mean I'm stuck. Then, shift your focus. Ask the Key Questions: Why do I want this? How bad do I want it? Am I willing to do what it takes to achieve it? The power of answering these questions lies in the fact that when you connect with your deeper values and purpose, your discouragement fades into determination. Your Action Step If you're feeling discouraged right now, perfect timing—this is exactly when you can apply these tools. Take a moment to ask yourself: What's a goal I really care about? Answer the questions above honestly. The more connected you are to your “why,” the stronger your resolve will be to push through challenges. If you're not feeling discouraged at the moment, think of a goal you've been working on, and run yourself through the same process. You'll be amazed at how clarity and determination come flooding back. The road to confidence isn't always easy, but when you stay in the game and choose to keep going, you'll look back and be amazed at how far you've come. Keep going, and don't give up—you're building something extraordinary.
