Transcript:
Pastor Joel Osteen said “You can talk yourself out of a dream and you can talk yourself into it.”
We have internal voices, they occasionally say ‘you're not good enough’, ‘this won't work’. But those voices come to us anytime we try to do something for God, or anytime we try to take a step in the right direction. Sometimes those voices even come from other people.
When I was still nursing my son, as a new mom, I felt uncomfortable leaving him overnight for the first time but my friend’s dad had passed and I felt I needed to be with her. Despite my insecurities and impending ‘mom guilt’, I talked myself in to going and it turned out to be such an important time for her healing and our friendship AND my husband had a special time with his son.
Although there are times it may be better to talk yourself OUT of something that isn’t the right thing, don’t let those voices convince you that you CAN’T. Instead, believe that you CAN.
