I have a history of being my own worst critic. But not today.

Today will be different. No self-destructive language will be spoken. There will be no self-criticism allowed. Join me. For the next 24 hours please. Refrain from repeating any of the following:

No Shame:

• What’s the matter with you?
• When are you ever going to learn?
• Why can’t you be better?

No Failure talk:

• Don’t screw up. You’re always screw up.You never learn!
• When are you going to get it together?

No Name calling:

• I’m such an idiot.
• Loser!
• Stupid!

No False identity:

• You’re defective.
• You are not like other people.
• You are so weird.

No Self criticism:

• You are all alone. No one wants you.
• You are not good enough.
• You’re worthless.

Why does this matter?

Each of the above statements hinder rest. If you want to be more peaceful, stop the self-criticism. Take a 24-hour criticism break.

Prayer

Father, I want peace, rest, and joy in my soul. You said I could have those emotions. Today I’m claiming your emotional promises. So, I will start repeating your truths in place of the above lies. Amen.

Bible

Jesus said.
… I have come to give you everything in abundance more than you expect – life in its fullness until you overflow.
John 10:10 (TPT)
