“The way you go about stopping the Enemy from sitting at your table is by winning the battle for your mind. Winning the mind battle means replacing old, harmful thoughts with new, life-giving thoughts. The thinking of these new thoughts will result in doing different things - changed behavior. Victory begins in the mind. One of the big ways to gain victory in your mind is to think less about the Devil or about the evil you're trying to avoid and to think more about God and the truth you're aiming to embrace. One of the most powerful tools at your disposal is the ability to memorize Scripture.”

“My breath catches, responding to an unfamiliar pull in my chest, an ache in my soul. I shouldn’t miss him, but I do; this boy who had every right to pull that trigger, and instead threw himself between me and death. This boy, the only one who believes I’m not what they say I am what I believed I was; a soldier without a soul, a girl with no heart to break. He’s the only one who’s proved me wrong.”

“What do you do with this inner trash talk? Similar to athletes who deal with trash talk, you have to learn to focus on the task at hand, not the trash talk. Think about it. Do you ever see a visiting football player try to hush the home team’s crowd? Of course not—it’s not a productive use of energy. In the same way, trying to tell your inner voices to stop talking trash will only increase their volume. Once you allow yourself to confront this trash talk head-on, you may start to see ways to move past it. It can be hard to be honest with yourself, but the Think part of engaging your core is key here. Ask yourself: Where do these thoughts and beliefs come from? How do they serve me? What would it look like to move past them? This is the time to stop accepting all of your trash-talking thoughts as truth and discover new ways to move forward.”
