So That's Where We're At



I hurt. 
I ache.

You know what's the worst?
When you have these deep-rooted {untrue} beliefs about yourself, implanted ever so firmly in your brain, AND THEN
something happens that confirms those beliefs!

So not only are you dealing with the pain of the situation.
You're also filled with these feelings of dread, weakness, and insecurity.
Because all the negative things you've thought about yourself have now been confirmed.
Right?

Wrong.
But it isn't easy to convince yourself of that. 

So where to begin?
Learn what you can trust and believe.
I can't always trust my thoughts.
But I can trust my roommate when she disproves my beliefs.
I can trust my best friend when she tells me that I'm not crazy.
I can trust that my brother Jesus Christ loves me perfectly. 
I can trust that I'm a daughter of God, and He doesn't make mistakes.
