Lies Lies, the lies have it!

I've had some amazing conversations recently with a few friends and we talked about the lies that we believe and accept as truth. We all have this voice in our heads that tells us we aren't good enough, we're not pretty enough, we're not smart enough, whatever it is that gets into our heads. The verse in John was brought to my attention, John 10:10;

"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."


The thief, only comes to steal, kill, and destroy, Steal, to take something away without permission. To Kill, it take life, and to destroy. Every lie that we believe is from him, everytime we hear that voice and take it to heart we are pulled deeper into the lie. But Jesus came so we could have life and life to the fullest. Life, to the fullest. I want that, don't you? I don't think that life to the fullest includes feeling like your a failure, feeling not pretty enough, not smart enough. We have to throw off the lies and let God breathe truth into our hearts. One last thought, My good friend Dave reminds me that even with satans lies, satan doesn't have power. God has already won, he won on the cross, the battle is over. Trust on God, lean on him. I love you guys!
