100 Days to Brave - Day 6 "The lies you believe"

8/27/2018

Comments

 
Day 6 - The lies you believe.  Lies were told to me throughout my childhood and stuck to me for so long that I believed them to be true.  I believed they were the truth about who was and who I am; and believed they were absolutely the truth about who I am supposed to be. 

Except, lies are not the truth. 

As obvious as this sounds, when lies are so vividly real they become core beliefs.  Core beliefs formed by lies are satan's way of keeping us from who we are truly meant to be. They make us feel like grasshoppers in our own eyes and in the eyes of others. They keep us from living the life God designed for us.

What is so incredibly painful about this realization, is in just how powerful these lies are. Satan is powerful. Satan is also a liar. Satan perpetuates these lies that we believe keep us in vicious cycles of abuse, poverty, addiction, and passivity to enact change.  We become so stuck to the lie, we may even fight ourselves over how the lie must be the truth. 

Except, lies are not the truth.

I am debating with myself how honest I want to be about the lies I believe.  Dare I expose the lies in my head for what they are? Or, do I keep them firmly inside the boundaries of my mind?  In all honesty, I'd like to keep them safe in my mind.  Then again, the who purpose of this 100 day journey is find my brave.  I'd like to challenge anyone reading this to dare to be brave. I will list 6 lies I believe that I know are lies. Sx core believes I am going to tell Satan are not true, and I refuse to believe from here on out.  
In the comments, I challenge you to call out Satan on a lie he perpetuates in your mind you no longer accept as truth.

Here's my 6:
Lie #1 - I am lazy, If only I tried harder...I could have...would be worthy.
Lie #2 - I am stupid. Slow as molasses going uphill on a cold day stupid.
Lie #3 - I am sloppy, even when I am at my best, it's still too sloppy
Lie #4 - I am not worth supporting, I will only fail, waste time, and money.
Lie #5 - I am only a good person if I give all my time, money, and talent away
Lie #6 - If I am fat, I am not worthy of having a husband.

The lies Satan tells me again and again are NOT the truth!!!!
The next time I hear any of these lies in my head, I will smile and say "Not today Satan".

Are you ready to confront your lies? Be brave, you can do it.
