All of us have soundtracks that play in our hearts, minds, and souls that direct and frame our lives.
God loves you
"The most important conversations you’ll ever have are the ones you’ll have with yourself. You wake up with them, you walk around with them, you go to bed with them, and eventually, you learn to act on them. Whether they be good or bad”
David Goggins

It is really hard to live in new behaviours, when our thoughts are still playing to the same old destructive soundtracks.
Our thoughts aren’t neutral but shape and frame how we see things.
IDENTITY
When they think of themselves, people see themselves in damaged, distorted, flaw-filled, failure-emphasizing ways and this becomes our identity.

If you know Christ, you are holy and pure not damaged and deformed
Yes, we are called to be holy, to live into holiness, and to pursue holiness, but we do that because it is already who we are
Our Value: You are loved, wanted, and valued by God.
There is an idea that things will only and always get worse
That there is nothing in your life that would not be better without the voice of fear directing, shaping, and guiding it
The soundtrack of fear says: Fear is in charge, not God!
You are holy
You are loved
Goodness and grace are pursuing you
You are loved
Goodness and grace are pursuing you
Main Point
We need to change the soundtracks in our hearts, minds, and souls
