<p>Bridget and I recently moved to the country, where the pace of life is a bit slower, more laid-back, and better suited to our slowing-down-a-bit lifestyle.</p> <p>While our new home was being built, we didn’t have cable or satellite service, so we didn’t watch as much television as we normally do, which I thought would be difficult, but the opposite was true. While we <i>did </i>make it a priority to watch college football whenever and wherever we could, watching our normal sitcoms, dramas, and the news didn’t happen very often…and it turned out to be a huge blessing, <i>especially missing the news</i>.</p> <p>I found that when I didn’t watch news programs right before going to bed, I was more relaxed, less keyed-up, and I slept better. After all, the top stories every evening normally dealt with war, political conflict, violence, crime, economic trouble, and pandemics…<i>not exactly the formula for sound sleep</i>.</p> <p>Face it, we live in a world of chaos and instability, and even the most seasoned believer probably finds it difficult to not be hit with worry, doubt, stress, and fear from time to time.</p> <p>But that’s not God’s desire for anyone. He wants all of us to live worry-free, doubt-free, stress-free, and free from fear, and He even makes a way for us to do it.</p> <p>On today’s podcast, we’ll look at our daily lives and how we can navigate the waters of uncertainty and turbulence, putting aside everything that causes our minds and hearts to be anxious and afraid.</p> <p>And we’re going to discover together why God wants all of us to: <b><i>Give Peace a Chance</i></b>. That’s coming up on this episode of Living Lite Today.</p> <p><br /></p>
