148. Only Jesus Gets to Tell You Who You Are

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In last week's episode we kind of alluded to today’s topic a little bit when we were talking about marriage, and learning to communicate better. How sometimes you have pre-decided a lie about yourself and that is how you will view it, this negative narrative. So today we want to talk about replacing the lies with truth and how “only Jesus gets to tell you who you are”. This quote came from a book I was reading by</span> <a href="https://www.charlesmartinbooks.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Charles Martin</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We break down that by believing lies, it can impact your whole life with negative consequences and learning to know that you don’t have to live that narrative. When you are a child of God, you are enough. Not based on your self worth but based on your faith. You must define what is enough for you and know that you are enough when you accept Jesus Christ. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But before we get into the topic of today, we give you an update on Baby D. We share what happens and that out of all the outcomes we thought we would receive from his survey the one we didn’t think to count on was Baby D’s hearing.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jesse and I also share with you what has been saving our lives this week. And what a great idea they are and that maybe you might pay it forward with this same option to help others who may need a helping hand. I also talk about the book I just finished by</span> <a href= "https://www.charlesmartinbooks.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Charles Martin</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">. It was book two in a series and I discuss how the topic of the story is really difficult but Martin has a way of giving it the dues and respect it deserves. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We leave you with words of encouragement to know that you can gain confidence when you step out to what God is ca
