As Hurricane Milton approaches Florida Amy Watson is faithfully trusting in the Lord and His will while preparing to hunker down until the storm passes.
Even during this time she always has you, her listeners in her heart and mind and recognizes that during these uncertain times we all need a little extra hope and comfort.
Join Amy as we combine two Wednesdays With Watson episodes that put the focus on the Lord during times of trouble.
The first is from Season 5 Summer in Psalms. The episode is called Exploring God's Faithfulness in Times of Trouble. Click HERE to listen to the full episode.
We have also included an episode from Season 3, Spaces, Places, and Aces. The episode is called Protecting Your Peace In A World That Is Not Peaceful. Click HERE to listen to this episode.
Navigating the stormy seas of life can leave us feeling adrift and uncertain, especially after the devastation brought by hurricanes Helene and Milton to the Southeast and Florida. Our episode invites you to explore how faith and the comforting words of the Psalms, alongside David Crowder's heartfelt music, can act as anchors during such tumultuous times. We reflect on the vital reminder that even when our spirits feel crushed, there is solace in knowing that God stands close to those who are hurting.
As the world grapples with civil unrest and its ripple effects on our mental well-being, particularly for those with PTSD or empathy overload, maintaining personal peace can seem like an insurmountable task. Drawing on insights from John Eldredge's "Take Your Life Back," we discuss practical strategies to reclaim serenity in the midst of global chaos. By reducing screen time and practicing benevolent attachment, we can learn to release burdens that aren't ours to carry. Faith and prayer emerge as powerful tools, helping us find strength and comfort in reclaiming our peace, an essential step for living a balanced life in turbulent times.
