Balance

Today's Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:5

Thought for the day: "Our Lord doesn't whisper shameful condemnations."

Ever have those thoughts running through your head that you're not good enough? You're a loser, nothing you do is right, no one could love you...yada, yada, yada. Let me tell you...this is the story of my life. There are so many times...SO many times...it's all I hear. I think I've mentioned it before, but I am the queen of the crappy self esteem. There are times that I am so insecure, scared and confused. 

But I know all of those negative things that I hear in my head are not coming from God. He doesn't put us down or make us feel shame. He loves us and wants us to be our best selves. He convicts us when we do wrong, but He does it in a loving way. 

But ya know...it's one thing to know it in your head...and another to know it in your heart. Isn't it odd how your brain and your feelings can be completely opposite? How is it that you can know one thing, but feel something else? How do I find a balance between the two?
