Shownotes

You weren’t bothered until they were.

Then suddenly, you're dragging someone else's frustration into your own spiritual space.

In today’s Anchor Point, Devin leads a faith exercise to uncover what actually bothers us, what doesn’t, and why we so easily take on other people’s stress.

This episode explores the quiet ways we adopt irritation that was never ours to begin with. Devin shares how faith can help us sort through the noise and stay rooted in peace.

  1. Why your peace does not need to match someone else’s pet peeve
  2. How to recognize when you are feeling something that is not really yours
  3. The prayer that helps you stay in your lane and walk with clarity

Insight:

This is not about ignoring problems. It is about asking God to help you discern what is yours to carry. Let Him show you where your energy and focus are best spent.

💬 What’s something that only started to bother you after someone else pointed it out?

How do you stay grounded in your own peace?
