Pt. 6 Leveling Up - Living Carefree

#19 Leveling Up: God has the Best pathway for my life

Overthinking and stressing about your next steps in life can make you feel stuck. God watches you and advises you and pays special attention to your journey. The best stories have twists and turns that you couldn’t have predicted, yet, when surrendered turns into outcomes you never could have planned.  

When we take account of our lives with a birds-eye view of our past, there are ups and downs, and even crisis moments. Every time we took the positional approach of humility, surrender, and willingness to say “yes” to the still small voice in our hearts, we not only got through the painful seasons, but we recognize happy surprises along the way.   

#20 Leveling Up: Living carefree

Have you ever wanted someone in your life to simply want more? Have you ever wished they would care more deeply for themselves? Sometimes we care for their goals more than they do! Having agendas for others is an unhealthy attachment that leads to control and frustration. 

After carrying “cares” long enough, we don’t even notice the extra weight. However, we weren’t created to lug around extra stress, and eventually, it takes a toll on our bodies, minds, and relationships. Instead of moving to “careLESS”, let’s move to “careFREE” where we trust God with those around us. This is a huge step in leveling up our relationships!

#21 Leveling Up: Be the person that’s easy to trust

Instead of just craving the trust of others, you can BE the kind of person that people trust. A culture of trustworthiness can be developed by being dependable, reliable, and keeping promises. Start with one area in your life by prioritizing consistency that you are going to follow through for your relationships. 

Listen more, ask questions, and be honest without hidden agendas. Having a character of no compromise is a great way to take responsibilities seriously. Don’t let yourself be overhead complaining - even to yourself!
