WHAT I TELL MYSELF
Today's reading: Psalm 102-104

I tell myself a lot of things.

I tell myself this world is no longer a safe place.

I tell myself the electric bill should be arriving soon and it's been a long, hot month.

I tell myself I placed myself into this pickle, it's up to me to get out of it.

I tell myself not to trust that person again.

I tell myself that I can never accomplish that task.

I tell myself I don't have it in me to do it another Sunday.

I tell myself I'm a huge failure because I've failed in that area of sin again, and again, and again.

I tell myself a lot of things, but this morning I'm renewing my mind with what I believe God needs me to be saying to myself...

"Praise the Lord, I tell myself; with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. Praise the Lord, I tell myself, and never forget the good things he does for me. He forgives all my sins and heals my diseases. He ransoms me from death and surrounds me with love and tender mercies. He fills my life with good things..." Psalm 103:1-5 NLT
