It’s Time For a New Truth Over Your Life

In High School, I dumped dish soap in the fish tank in biology. I denied I had anything to do with the floating fish and suds. The principal later confided in me that I’d “never amount to anything.”

Some voices in our life carry a disproportionate amount of weight. Things that were said a long time ago in an unrelated context keep playing in our heads decades later as if they are the gospel truth.

Is there a voice from the past giving you lousy advice today?

Which old stories aren’t serving you any longer?

It’s time for a new truth over your life.
