Your worst thoughts aren’t the truth. They’re your fear speaking in your voice. Heaven has been translating them all along. Listen for what’s actually true.

What you say: I’m not enough.

Heaven’s translation: You’ve been holding yourself to a standard no one asked you to meet.

You’re rewriting a story that isn’t finished

Jacqueline Whitney

What you say: I’m going to end up alone.

Heaven’s translation: You’re scared of being unloved. You aren’t.

What you say: I’m too much.

Heaven’s translation: Someone made you believe that once. They were wrong.

What you say: I ruined it.

Heaven’s translation: You’re rewriting a story that isn’t finished.

What you say: I don’t matter.

Heaven’s translation: You’ve been believing a lie for a long time. Please stop.

What you say: I’ll never get past this.

Heaven’s translation: You already are. Slowly. You just can’t measure it yet.
