Wisdom Wednesday: Don’t Believe Everything You think

Don’t believe everything you think. Sometimes our thoughts, even those about ourselves are wrong! I’m not sure who said this quote, but it’s a good one to print out and put on your mirror, by your computer monitor or on your fridge if you wrestle negative self-talk and body image issues. I love how the Bible talks about God’s thoughts being higher than ours. Additional evidence that our thoughts don’t always get it right:

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9

Who do you know that needs a reminder that their thoughts aren’t always the truth? Share the image below with them or pin or share for your friends!
