NEGATIVE THOUGHTS

-

My biggest wish in this life is that people would quit listening to and having conversations with the lies that run through their heads. That people would just say to their own heads, "No" I will not talk to you anymore because you are not nice to me! I am so serious right now! People spend so much time being mad at the enemy when all along the enemy is themselves. He doesn't have to do a thing because we do it to ourselves. We listen to the lies about ourselves and then we have these conversations with ourselves. I did it for so long so I know this is true. I see people wasting their lives in torment because they are spending their time reasoning with lies and distorted beliefs in their heads.

Instead we need to say "No" to those conversations in our head and turn our attention directly to Jesus. Imagine Him standing there with you. Say, "No" to the conversation and visualize Jesus instead! Turn our attention to Him, really see Him! We have to stop the chatter in our heads and say, "no"! Stop the argument before it has a chance to snowball by saying "no" immediately and turning our attention quickly. No reasoning! No questioning! Just stop!

I hate the mental problems that plague people! Hate is not even big enough for how I feel about mental issues. Please stop allowing those conversations that go on in your head! They create horrible feelings of torment and hopelessness. We think God has forgotten us but this is a lie! 

 You are the only one who can do it. No one can do it for you! You have to stop it. He is there just waiting to comfort you, but He can't get to you because you are lost in your own tormented head. Get out of that dangerous neighborhood and join the land of the living. Being lost in your head is total tormenting way of life. Get out of there!

Say, no, no, no no! Turn your attention to Him. That is how we take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. Say no to the thoughts, turn our attention to Him and change what we say to ourselves. 

Please say no and stop allowing yourself to be robbed! I am so serious about this! Your head is a dangerous neighborhood! Move out of that neighborhood, it is not a safe place to reside!

REGRETS

-
We all seem to have some things that we have done or neglected to do; failures that have caused regrets. It is what we do with those regrets in our minds that either causes us to forgive ourselves and move on, or beat ourselves up and never let ourselves off-the-hook. If we allow those regrets and failures to run rampant in our minds, over and over it can cause hopelessness, depression, anxiety and despair, or worse. Doing so creates a groove in our minds of negativity that we default back to whenever anything similar comes up to remind us of it. We let the negative thoughts about our failures or regrets play in our heads once again causing negativity and torment. A lot of times we get so used to doing this, that we don’t even realize we are doing it anymore, if we ever did! The answer is to make a new groove in our minds, so that our default will not take us back to our failures anymore. (Of course, the first thing that is needed is to ask God to forgive us for partnering with li

FINDING WORTH

-
For a lot of my life i had nothing to give. I might do some nice, caring things for others but I couldn't give me. I had a big empty hole inside and I spent most of my waking hours trying to get someone to fill it up, or thinking about a time when someone did say or do something to fill me up. I planned in my head how I would get what I needed in the future. I didn't do all of this on purpose of course. I wanted to love others and give love like Jesus wanted me to but mostly I just needed, and I would hate myself for it. More and more I was hating myself. I knew I had a problem but I didn't know what it was or how to make it better. I carried shame with me. I wasn't good enough, smart enough or pretty enough and I wanted to be anyone else but me. When I would try and go out to love others or give to others, the big hole inside of me was looking around at everyone else asking, "Will anyone out there tell me I am okay?" "Will anyone say I am pretty or me

BOUNDARIES

I write and talk a lot about the committee in our heads-and not listening to it, and changing our self-talk, which are both extremely important, but the other day I was talking to an old friend about some struggles I was having, and she said something that caused me to ponder an important addition to my above sentence. She said, “When you keep hearing inside, “something is not right here, something is not right here,” it is a good idea to take notice and pay attention to what is going on.” Since then, I have been thinking about this statement and I realized that it is a missing puzzle piece for me. I needed to take notice of this because I struggle with putting up with too much, and not knowing when enough is enough. I have a tendency to put up with more than I should in situations, relationships, jobs etc. I guess it is residue from the physical, emotional and mental abuse I have lived through. ACTION I realized that sometimes we need to take action and stand up for ourselv
