A Few More Thoughts on Self-Advocacy, Being Enough, Relative Truth, and Finding the LightThe world is screaming at us things like:* “Live YOUR truth!” * “You ARE ENOUGH!” * “Everyone needs to respect YOUR identity, and YOUR rights!”The problem is, the more we listen to these ideas, the more tired and weak and dry our lives seem to become. There has to be a better way. There is. This quiet time explores the path forward out of the dryness and darkness of these lies, and will help you find the light again. Scriptures:But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. II Corinthians 12:9-10 NIVWhen Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness

It’s Self-Brain Surgery Saturday!Today, we learn a brand-new operation called Ablate Self-Advocacy. This will help you reject the idea that you have to fight for yourself amidst life’s troubles, and embrace the truth that we have a perfect advocate, the Yes to every promise God has made, to help us. If you’re tired of being tired, tired of thinking life is always so hard, tired of feeling like you have to fight and claw for everything in your life, this is the operation you need. Scripture: 2 Corinthians chapter 1For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God. II Corinthians 1:20, NIVHere’s a perfect example of this self-brain surgery operation:(from Instagram user Eleesha Martin)Book mentioned: Forgive: Why Should I and How Can I? by Timothy KellerArticle by John PiperMusic by Brenton Brown(Music shared on The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast is authorized under BMI license #61063253 and ASCAP license #400010513 ) This is a publ
