Episode notes
Panic Warps How You See Problems
- Panic distorts vision and narrows perspective, making problems look bigger than they are.
- Ask God to correct your vision and use grounding responses like a walk, worship song, or scripture.
Use A Go-To Response In Crisis
- When fear rises, take a step back, name your feelings and bring them to God in prayer.
- Use a go-to grounding practice like a walk, a worship song, or a Bible passage to re-centre.
Faith Lets You See Deeper Reality
- Faith isn't blind or naive; it lets you see deeper spiritual realities alongside earthly facts.
- Elisha's calm came from seeing both the army and God's presence, not from denying reality.
