The biggest lie is "Your Not Good Enough".


As I travel back into my childhood I see how satan convinced me to believe the ugliest lie there could be “Your Not Good Enough”. Which shaped my whole life truthfully. I see the nieve girl that searched to find her significance but couldn’t because the deceiver brought confusion upon her. That lie never tried to sympathize with my emotions, so it told me to keep it inside. So because I listened, it made its way into my ears and went through the entrance of my heart and gave me self-doubt, fear. I listened to that one lie it fed me in my ears. I carried it in my heart for so long that I became indenial of my fear. I acted as if it wasn’t there but it was, I was just a good actress.
