You Can Talk Yourself into Something and Talk Yourself Out of Something Else

Word for December 29th, 2021

I see that you can talk yourself into something and talk yourself out of something else. You are quite skilled at that - talking yourself into something and talking yourself out. Sometimes I observe you flipping and flopping like a fish out of water, but that skill can work for you or it can work against you. It works against you when you're talking yourself into the things that you know in your heart you are not to be doing. But then you ignore that. You ignore what your heart, what your spirit is saying and you talk yourself into it anyway. You're pulled by other things in that way. That, then, can work against you because that path does not lead to life, true life. You might deceive yourself in thinking it leads to things that you would like, you're being tempted, but it doesn't lead to true life. However, if you put that skill to talk yourself into aligning yourself with what your heart and spirit knows you are to do, what you know, what you know in your being you are to do. Talk yourself into those things! Don't flip and flop. Don't doubt. Don't be like a wave tossed to and fro. Be steadfast in talking yourself into the things that you know in your heart and spirit are good, for they all lead to life. I have planted that desire in you - to seek after those things that are truly Me. So use your skill to talk yourself in and out of things. Use that skill and follow your heart, your spirit, for there is life, there is love, there is all you'll ever need.
