Hello I was getting a little discouraged in the library as I was studying for this test...seeing that I have to take it in less than two weeks and I came across this article that helped me....
In the book Facing Your Giants, by Max Lucado, he states, Focus on your giant(s) you stumble. Focus on God and your giant(s) tumble. You cannot fight your giant on your own. You need God to guide and assist you. The Holy Spirit to comfort you when you are feeling down. You need to learn how to transform your mind. Change your thought process and you will change how you view yourself and your situation. Start speaking life over yourself. Philippians 4:13 says, I can do all things through Christ with strengthens me. You have to believe. I cannot emphasize this enough! If you believe in your heart but doubt wants to creep into your mind gate (your mind is your battlefield), ask God to help your unbelief (read Mark 9:23-24)!
Don't let your feelings dictate who you are. Let the Word of God replace every negative thought you may have of yourself. Again, speak life over yourself. I am somebody; God loves me; I am forgiven; God is my helper. The Bible says in Proverbs 18:21 that death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. So, if you want good fruit, produce good thoughts and good speech. Clean out your mind of all old, hurtful, painful and discouraging thoughts.
