I tend to think too much about things too. I’ve also been learning to let go! Thank you for this encouragement, ‘ With God’s companionship, you can ease up on on outcomes.’

This reminds me of my takeaways from Anne Bogel’s _Don’t Overthink It_. A VERY BIG overthinker for most of my life, I was grateful to adopt some practices after reading that slim volume a couple of years ago. Those simple adjustments have saved me time, strife, energy; I’ve learned, at the end of the day, VERY few decisions are really THAT big of a deal. And I best save my stores for those!

Love this!! If I could only take back all the hours I’ve spent asking myself, “What am I going to wear today?” and “What’s for dinner?” I now have a simple capsule wardrobe and we eat very simple (but tasty) food. Thanks for the reminder that simplicity is often a godly choice, not a lazy one. Bless you.

I am way too serious—a deep thinker for sure. However, I have learned to say, “It is what it is,” when life takes an unexpected turn. I can go with the flow and change up my plans. But of course, I will still overthink it.

In general I find it easy to just roll with the punches and not take things too seriously, and I definitely think it’s a personality thing. Always a good reminder to lighten up and remember who’s in charge – and it’s not me!

Sometimes we need to go with the flow. I am a planner so I know it is hard to do. But it can be so rewarding.

I’m a thinker, so ‘oh, well’ is not natural to me, but I can ‘intentionally’ choose to release things in obedience to the Lord or in consideration of others.

I am not a “so what” person. I think way to long on things.

Yes the devil entraps us with the worries of this world. We need to give all of our worries, cares and burdens to Jesus every day, throughout the day. Jesus said in His Word that He wants to give us an abundant life. Jesus wants us to enjoy life. Great post Lisa.
