69. “How often do you feel overwhelmed by the demands you place
on yourself and those placed on you by your family, friends, co-
workers, and life in general? The real problem is not everything
that’s being asked of you but forgetting that you have the
power to choose how you will respond to everything that’s
being asked of you. Claiming your ability to choose is the
dynamic difference between feeling pushed and pulled
around all the time and intentionally living – sometimes dancing
even – to the rhythm of holy empowerment.
This brings us to a fundamental question: Who is in charge of
your life?”
Kirk Byron Jones,
