Continuing my series on 8 Spiritual Blocks Potentially Hindering You from Walking in Joy & Freedom! In case you missed the 1st block you can read about it HERE.

#2 is: Taking on the Energy of Others

Have you ever:

• Walked into a room excited to arrive only to realize you're surrounded in negativity and are feeling drained?
• Met a friend for coffee, tea or lunch and after spending time listening to their current struggle, you walk away feeling heavy and perhaps even feeling down like they were feeling?
• Come home from work to a spouse who had a rough day at work, and all of a sudden your mood shifts and you feel similar to the way your spouse does?
• Realized God created you as an empath, so you feel other people's struggles deeply, and struggle differentiating between their emotions and your own emotions?

Friend, there is a difference in being empathetic and taking on the energy of others. The difference is that as an empath we feel deeply yet we have the choice to carry our friend/loved one's struggle ourselves, or surrender them to Jesus.

When we take on the energy of others we are instead choosing to try and carry their struggle for ourselves. While it is a gift to be empathetic, it is vital for our well-being that we don't carry the burdens of others, rather walk in FREEDOM and SURRENDER, daily giving our own burdens as well as the burdens of those we love to Jesus to carry for us.

If you find yourself in a situation where you believe you tend to Take on the Energy of Others, and you want to see God work in your life to bring freedom in this area – I would be honored to come alongside you for a season as we watch what God does in this area of your life.

Feel free to book a FREE Discovery Call with me – or simply book a session with me.
