Our own Jill Howell shared the following post from her blog recently. I think we can all relate…
I very often will hear lies in my head. It is so frustrating!
Just the other day, I went to pick up the kids from Gymnastics. We have had some struggles lately with Natalie’s attitude and demanding spirit. Well, when I went to pick them up she had some major ATTITUDE. She was totally not listening and I did not know how I was going to get her (and Nicholas) out of there. I quickly became embarrassed by her behavior.
As for the lies, I started hearing in my head, “These other people think I am a bad mother. They don’t think I discipline her. They think she is a brat. They don’t like her. We shouldn’t come here anymore. I guess they don’t have kids that act like this…” And on and on. I wanted to cry right there and then.
Thankfully I am at a point in my life where I recognize these lies as they enter my head. And I am trying not to believe them (for I know that is what the evil one would want me to do). I pray I become quicker and quicker at dismissing it.
So, what lies do you hear in your head? Come on…be honest. 
It’ll be good to confess it and therefore creating less power they can have in your brain.

Some of the lies I here in my head: I’m not successfull enough. That’s the big one. I know it’s not true but a lie in my head none the less.

One of the lies in my head is, “I’m not as good/special/loveable as so and so.”
