Here's a nice little poem by my good friend Dotun Fadairo. It portrays how the lies we believe about ourselves negatively impart our relationships. Many people hear these lies from society, from their parents' actions or just from a disturbed state of mind that misconstrues every nuance to mean disapproval. The good news is that Jesus is the Truth. He is the only one who can properly and accurately define you. Therefore any chracter traits or flaws that are not in Christ are lies that you've told yourself. Enjoy
Shards of broken relationships behind; vengeance on the face
With every step the lie proclaims
"They're all the same! Put em in their place"
A family torn apart; walls of division thick and strong...
Anger and bitterness dance away as the lie sings the
"I did it my way" song
A body ravaged by worry,stress and strain
The cocktail seeps to the bone
In all the agony the lie declares
"I am all alone"
