My husband is reading this book called Humility by: C.J. Mahaney and he was sharing with me what he was learning. It was really cool. There was a quote from C.J that said "We need to stop listening to ourselves and start talking to ourselves." At first I was like.. "I don't get it?" and to be completely honest, at first it sounded like some phony "self-help" advice that I wasn't so sure about.. But then it really started making sense! Think about it.. in the morning when we wake up, we are normally getting ready while quietly thinking to ourselves. We begin to talk silently to ourselves about the day, how we feel, etc. And what C.J is trying to say is that those are the times when we should be talking to ourselves; reminding ourselves of the promises of God, of scripture from the Word, and of the truth. Therefore our minds are in the right place and our time is being used wisely as we are worshiping God with every breath we take.
