Triggers and memory tapes
July 24, 2018
Mind triggers that set off memory tapes of our mess ups can be tough. We think, ‘My bad.’ We beat ourselves up again and even lapse back to repeating that behavior feeling hopeless.
God has a better solution. Ask Him for forgiveness. He does. Psalm 103: 3 When the trigger prompts again, respond with this. ‘Its forgiven and forgotten by the only person who matters, my Lord.” “Its forgiven in the only court that matters.”
Hope begins there. Every positive action following any trigger builds our God strengthened confidence. Any trigger is useless against the armor God gives us. Ephesians 6: 10-18, faith, truth, being right with God, and the peace of knowing we are safe with God. Prayerfully put on each piece every morning.
