My Own Worst Enemy...

Hi I’m Kara, and I’m my own worst enemy… I have the power to think about every situation that I am a part of and every outcome for each situation… So what’s the problem? I over think…I over think to the point of driving myself crazy! I over think about everything! It kind of sucks, for me and everyone around me… I process through talking and writing (part of the reason I have this blog!) So when I over think (hahah yeah sorry guys! :/)  I can blow every little thing out of proportion! It doesn't end well for me! By over thinking, I put myself on an emotional roller coaster I don’t have to be on!  But that’s not the only problem!

Another problem is Words! Words hurt whether we let people know or not! So someone could jokingly say “oh you can’t do that!” The more we hear that, the more we believe it. The more we believe that, the more baggage we acquire. I know I linked this video in another post but… it’s worth watching again! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlTzgTW3WaE  Our minds store those thoughts and those words that others have said and believed we are… They replay in our minds whenever we try to succeed…  It’s time for it to stop! Our minds are our friends not our enemies! So how do we get our minds back on our side? We have to change our mindset!

Think about it if we hear long enough “you can’t do it!” we start to believe it! Well start believing you can! Think of the little engine that could! All he ever said was“I think I can! I think I can!” and he did! Believe in yourself!  I’m drawn to a verse in Joshua which says: 

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
–Joshua 1:9

Wow! He is with us! Always! Our God is with us! And do you guys know what? When our God is with us… Nothing can stand against! NOTHING! Not our minds over thinking, not the baggage we carry, nothing! That is amazing guys!

God Bless!


And Remember,  He has made you beautiful!
