  • 59. Wellness Tools – Part 4
    Feb 21 2025
    Caroline closes out her four-part series on wellness by discussion spiritual wellness. Two key activities for spiritual growth are prayer and Bible study. Prayer The Serenity Prayer by Reinhold Neibuhr (1892-1971, German theologian) https://www.prayerfoundation.org/dailyoffice/serenity_prayer_full_version.htm God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, courage to change the things which should be changed, and the Wisdom to distinguish the one from the other. Living one day at a time, Enjoying one moment at a time, accepting hardship as a pathway to peace. Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that You will make all things right if I surrender to Your will, so that I may be reasonably happy in this life, and supremely happy with You forever in the next. Amen. Caroline also shared the ACTS prayer as a model for prayer. A=Adoration C=Confession T=Thanksgiving S=Supplication (petition, praying for needs for self and others). Prayer Assignment: Write a prayer expressing your pain, struggles, doubts, questions, etc. God can take whatever you have to say. He wants you to come before his throne and pour out your heart to him. So pour away. Write a prayer thanking God for listening. Offer words of praise for the blessings in your life. Write a prayer, asking God to make his presence known to you throughout this process of recovery and into the future. Express your commitment to healing and health by whatever means God designs. Bible study When it comes to the Bible, Caroline suggests both reading and studying. One suggested method of studying includes four questions to ask after reading a passage. Studying God’s Word Begin with prayer, asking God to bring insights and understanding to the passage you are about to read. Read a passage from scripture (a few verses at a time is usually plenty when you are first starting) Look back over the passage, meditate on the words, and ask yourself the following questions: What is happening in the context of the passage? Refer to a few verses before and after the assigned passage for greater understanding. What do I learn about God? What are some principles, or teachings, I can identify in the passage? How can I apply God’s words in my current situation? End in prayer, specifically asking God to help you live out his word in your daily life. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

    Feb 5 2025
    Affirmations & Journaling In this third of four episodes on wellness, Caroline shares information on how to use affirmations and journaling to improve mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Affirmations Using affirmations and accompanying Scriptures, a person can retrain their thoughts to line up with the truth of God's Word. They will begin to accept their identity as a beloved child of God and heir with Christ while hiding Scripture in their hearts. Journaling Journaling gives individuals an opportunity to express themselves in a healthy way. Whether journaling prayers, emotional experiences, or the events in daily life, journaling sometimes reveals surprising feelings or memories that transfer from the subconscious to the paper (or computer document) you're writing on. Journaling prayers is especially beneficial in growing closer to the Lord. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!
