Choosing Thoughtfulness: The Power of Pausing with Vernon Layne

When we react we forfeit our God-given power to pause and think. The ability to choose is a gift from God but it's also a responsibility.
Picture this: you're in a heated moment, and your first instinct is to react immediately. But what if you could harness the power of pausing? In this episode of 'That Christian in Recovery', Vernon Layne dives into the importance of taking a moment before reacting. He explores how this simple act can transform your journey through recovery and faith. Vernon shares his own battles with impulsivity and how learning to pause has been a game-changer for him.
He draws wisdom from biblical stories like those of Moses and Aaron, who sought guidance from God in moments of crisis. Their humility and patience serve as powerful examples for us all. Vernon also highlights the role of accountability partners – those trusted individuals who help keep us on track and honest with ourselves. By pausing, reflecting, and seeking divine guidance, we can make more thoughtful choices that lead to a life of recovery and spiritual growth.
This episode is packed with personal anecdotes, biblical insights, and practical advice, all delivered with Vernon's signature blend of empathy and faith. Whether you're navigating addiction recovery or simply looking to improve your decision-making, this episode offers valuable lessons on the power of pausing.
