💌 Gentle reminder of the day: You are worthy of rest, peace, and healing. You are so much more than the conditions you manage.

Have you ever had one of those days where you wake up and think you have been robbed of all hope, forgiveness, etc.? I imagine we've all had those days. I know I have.

That's a lie your brain tells you that can lead you on a downward spiral of shame and despair. Lamentations 3:22-23 states that God provides a fresh, inexhaustible supply of compassion, forgiveness and help tailored to the challenges you will face today. All you need to do is "open the package" and receive it's contents.

How do you do that? Tell the Lord (verbally, even if it's a whisper) that you receive the promise of His grace, mercy and goodness. Claim that truth throughout the day. Repeat it until you believe it.

Research backs up this concept through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but the Bible had dibs on that idea long ago. Train your thoughts to choose and believe God's word (Phil 4:8).

If you have a special verse, quote or strategy that helps you through those days, please share it below. How do YOU get through those days?
