Peoples words do not define us

This week I struggled with a lot of pain. I find it hard to concentrate and think clearly.

I have been reminding myself of my identity in Jesus.

I started to do this on a daily basis. I have to keep my heart clear of negative words and thoughts on a daily basis.

Momentarily I got caught up in nasty comments. I will admit I was thrown for a while by the negativity.

I allowed one person to distract me from my identity in Christ. I allowed a negative word to put myself down.

I tend to wallow in the muck of nasty comments. This happens a lot when I am over tired. I tend to over think. I look at the nasty comments and study them and pick at them.

I prayed about this. I shared my experience with a good friends and she said something that was very profound. You are a daughter of the King. You are a Princess. Peoples nasty words do not define your worth God does.

I am back on the road of healing again. I have prayed that the nasty words will not latch on to me. I ask for a shield of protection.

I move on now to walking and talking and thinking as a Child of the King.
