28.5. Feeling triggered? Feeling judged by others? Or judging yourself? Consumed by over thinking? Discerning the voice of God. The ugly & the BEAUTIFUL freeing truth about it. There’s hope! Isaiah 49
Hello my friend!
Holy moly, was I triggered last week! Dealing with judgement from others can be sooo triggering and difficult to navigate.
But the REAL trick and the more important work to get through-- is working through our own judgements about ourself.
We tend to over think these judgments and rehearse resentments towards ourself, and it’s exhausting!
But there's so much freedom when we find our way through judgement. Real joy and peace are on the other side of these judgements… it can feel like we are swimming upstream without a paddle at times though, but we all can navigate through it and find some much needed relief! You are not alone!
I also mention when we are feeling judged by God and how to deal with that, and more importantly learning to discern if it's truly His voice or not.
Gary's (my hubby) powerful quote on judgement:
(Me struggling with judgements...) Gary responded "...People are judging you, people judged you in the past, they are judging you right now and they will judge you tomorrow. LIVE YOUR LIFE! You answer to God and God alone!" --Amen. Realizing and accepting that we don't control other people's beliefs or narratives about us, is so freeing... it takes time, but wow--is it worth the mindset work, and forgiveness work to get there!
Verses mentioned:
