Silence Over Noise

Good morning family. Happy to see "hump day"....One day closer to the weekend. The week has been good and productive so far.The words we say have a long-lasting effect on us. What we put into the atmosphere says a lot about our character. I understand that sometimes that the negative/defensive words we say are a result of our past rejections/hurt. We feel it necessary to let everyone know that we're strong and won't be bullied, pushed around or taken for granted. What we miss is that we are strongest when we're silent or when we respond in kindness. Negative words represent defeat and nothing more. I remind you this morning as I remind myself, we don't have to roar like lions to get attention, we need only stand in faith, walk "through" and conquer whatever/whoever is pushing our buttons, focus inward. We should own who we are based on who God says we are. If someone is trying to destroy your self esteem or put you on blast because you're not doing what they think you should be doing, shut them down by loving them anyway. Make sure they understand that your trust in God is greater than anything they can say or do to you. He is "All" and that is all. TeamSilenceOverNoise. Bblessedloveyou
