Laziness and Lies.

aaaahhhh.....the truth.....

How many of our old patterns and habits are not based in the truth?
How many agreements have we made with our lower self, or hidden contracts we've made with our ego?
The things we tell ourselves over and over that the people around us get sick of hearing?

The little list of lies I believe to be true......
1.I'm too fat to wear a bikini.
2.I'm a bad mother.
3.I'm not loving enough.
4.Oh the list goes on and on and on and on....

...but these are all lies. Things I choose to believe, when I know they aren't the truth.


There's a Casting Crowns song (don't you love how there is a song for everything you're going through)
called "the Voice of Truth" it says.... the voice of truth, tells me a different story, the voice of truth says do not be afraid. The voice of truth says this is for my glory, out of all the voices calling out to me, I will CHOOSE and listen to the voice of truth.

The lesson today, the power of truth tells us we can indeed choose to listen to the lies we tell ourself, our limiting beliefs, or we can tear up this old list of lies and rewrite the rules.

The rules of the truth I now believe...
1.I look great in a bikini. Hey I'm pushing 40 and have had a couple kids, I look pretty dang good.....
2.I'm an awesome mom. I'm engaged, I listen, I accept that they are perfect just as they are.
3.I am loving in my own way. I am nurturing, passionate and authentic.
4.and so on, and so on....

Everyday take an inventory of these lies, and turn them into truths. It takes practice, but you can do it!!
The only reason we would choose to believe a lie over the truth is laziness. This is work, but work that has huge rewards attached to it. So DO THE WORK. No one is going to do it for you.

The truth will set you free, and freedom is our ultimate goal.
