Day 3: Be Deaf
On a day-to-day basis we get upset about what others say to us and what we hear them say to others. We need to be deaf to all of it.
Today in the office a colleague was talking to another about my incapability. According to my knowledge I am capable, according to the rest of my colleagues I am capable. I had to take a deep breath and remind myself that today is be deaf day.
We need to be deaf to the negativity, deaf to the painful words, deaf to everything that weighs us down and doesn’t positively influence us.
In Proverbs 17 we are reminded to be deaf to anything that can crush our spirits and leavesus dry.
Proverbs 17:22 “A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”
Prayer:
Almighty God help us to be deaf to everything that weakens us and crushes us. Help us to focus on your love and positivity. Remind us that our acceptance is within you and not human form. Amen..
