"We are destroying speculations, and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ." - 2 Corinthians 10:5 (NASB)
Impulsivity has tossed me to and fro. Lies I have fallen prey to have all but destroyed my life. Oh, if I would take every thought captive! If I would fight back the lies with the truth of God's Word! Then I would be established, like the tree in Psalm 1, planted and prospering.
"Understanding will watch over you" (Psalm 2:11b) I can be guarded by gaining wisdom
What lies are you believing in your mind today? Are they lies of worry and doubt? Because God has you in His hands. Are they lies you are not good enough? Because God did not make a mistake when He created you. The more I study God's Word, the more I realize I have been listening to lie after lie about myself. Will you join me in fighting against these strongholds today? Your mind will be forever thankful for each step taken toward better mental health.
Jesus said "I am the Vine." We are to abide in and wait on Him as our everything. As a sufferer of many illnesses, both physical and mental, I have learned much through seeking Him.

I Have Hope
"I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe." -Ephesians 1:18-19 (NASB)
I have hope.
I have the hope of His calling. He called me. He called me to be His child. He chose me. He loves me. I am called to do goos works for His glory. I am called to pick up my cross and follow Him.
And with this calling is hope. Hope because I have purpose in this life and treasures stored up in my eternal home to which He will take me one day.
I rest in this hope.
Positive affirmations you can write down and read each day:

I am called.
I am chosen.
I am loved.
I have purpose.
