Summary
Our superiority over other living species on earth lies not in our power to control everything but in our free will.
When God made humans stewards of His creations, we weren’t given extra comic book superpowers nor omnipotence. He knew that our intelligence coupled with the power to choose were enough for us to perform His will.
This fact greatly showed when Noah excellently performed His will. Noah had no control over the flood. What he could control was his response to God’s call. And so he chose to tap into his resources including God’s grace and guidance, his family, and natural resources to build an ark.
Noah could’ve chosen to disobey God. He could’ve sulked in despair over the inevitable natural disaster and let the flood consume his family and the creatures he was called to save. BUT he chose otherwise.
And that’s the key!
There will always be circumstances in our lives and in our weight loss journey that we CANNOT control! But we’re NEVER powerless!
Surrendering to trials and tragedies is NOT our only OPTION. There’s always something we can control and we have the power to choose our responses to the challenges we face.
On a previous episode we talked about acknowledging the power of the environment and how underestimating environmental factors can jeopardize our health.
Today, we give tribute to the power of humans! Let’s talk about surpassing challenges and taking back our health and our lives, by embracing our power to choose the things we control despite seemingly overwhelming odds.
Tune in to this week's episode to learn more about tapping into all your resources, managing your responses, and ultimately staying in control of your life despite uncontrollable circumstances.

| 1:23.4 | Thank you. Yeah. Without all these people listening, Christy, we would just be sitting in a room of you and I talk. It'd just be like a phone conversation, which I'm not saying they aren't phone conversations because it kind of feels like that sometimes. But when we discuss kind of what we want to talk about on a podcast with you guys, we start to discuss it. We say, wait, wait, wait, don't say anything. |
