The enemy wants to distract us and have us focus outside of ourselves rather than looking in our mirror without filters.
Luke 6:41 TPT
41 Why do you focus on the flaw in someone else’s life and fail to notice the glaring flaws of your own life?
There is another mirror. The mirror of our Emotions. In the Big Picture there are two flavors. Negative or Dark emotions and Positive or Light emotions. They are a reflection of the two Kingdoms--Light and Dark. Some will tell you that the best thing to do is ignore Emotions altogether. I say to you that they are a Gift and a spiritual communication.
We choose what we agree with—lies or truth. There’s a catch, it’s an individual choice. No one can make that choice for you. Agreement Paves the Way. The intentional choice to Agree with the Truth of the Word takes Faith to another level moving it from the head to the heart.
Let’s do a test, the results are your evidence of where Agreement really is-lies or truth.
What do you feel about yourself?
Are you filled with Love and Compassion?
Or are you filled with anger and criticism?
How you feel reveals your heart alignment--Truth or Lies.
Now you could be in a place where what is revealed doesn't make any sense to you. I understand.
One Sunday I drove into my church parking lot and as I did a thought went through my mind that I didn't trust God. I couldn't believe it. I trust God!
I thought about it and was really wondering where that came from. Then I remembered that I had been praying a hedge of protection around the church property so that anyone driving in would have anything not of the King dropped outside of the property making a way for Holy Spirit to work. Then it popped into my mind that my Little or child self would not have trusted God.
Oh. That's true. She wouldn't have. She thought that He left her all alone.
That let me know that there was a disconnect between my Big and my Little which helped me to understand why what I believed as an adult with my mind was out of sync with what I felt in my heart.
