This is a gift to you from God. It’s a reminder that in Christ, you have the ability to filter out every negative thing said to you, and every negative thought you have about yourself, your relationships, and your circumstances.
If there’s something you can learn from God in any of it, any truth or revelation that will benefit and bless you, you can drink that. Otherwise, you’re free to throw out the rest.
Guard your heart from becoming poisoned, be intentional about what gets to live in your head, and determine the words that come out of your own mouth are life-giving.
“Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Keep putting into practice all you learned and received…and the God of peace will be with you” (Philippians 4:8-9).
