I was certain that I was right. This feeling emboldened me to push more and more. My arguments became louder, more aggressive, and even turned personal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uh oh.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At some point, I crossed the line from a loving rebuke to a hateful insult.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And now, I was wrong.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There didn\u2019t seem to be any voices condemning me\u2026except one \u2013 my inner critic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the meeting, I apologized to everyone present, especially to the one I had personally sinned against. They were so gracious and kind to me. They not only offered their forgiveness but incredible understanding. I got in my car to go home thinking that it was all over. And it was\u2026until my head hit my pillow. An instant replay of the night started running through my mind. Feelings of shame, guilt, regret, and embarrassment washed over me just as strongly as they had earlier in the evening. I grabbed my phone and immediately texted another message of apology and regret to the person I offended. They assured me that it was over, they had forgiven me and had already forgotten it. I breathed a sigh of relief and laid back down. But the cycle of condemnation started all over again. Have you experienced that before? It seems as though our most embarrassing moments are somehow stored in our pillows. (Scientists should really be looking into that.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But the reality was that after my many mistakes of the evening, no one was telling me I was a terrible person. No one was denying me forgiveness. No one was criticizing me. There didn\u2019t seem to be any voices condemning me\u2026except one \u2013 my inner critic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Silencing Your Inner Critic<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We all have an inner critic. For some that critic is more active than others, but it\u2019s there all the same. And when we\u2019ve made a mistake, or missed the mark, somehow it seems that our inner critic gets really loud and makes peace impossible for us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You lay your head down. (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat comment was really uncalled for tonight.\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re prepping dinner. (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cRemember how hateful that attitude was?\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re in worship. (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cShould you really be singing those words after the week you had?\u201d<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At times, that voice is loud and the condemnation crippling. But it\u2019s not supposed to be that way for us. Jesus has come to set us free. Galatians 5:1 tells us that, \u201cIt is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The condemnation of our inner critic is a burden that we aren\u2019t to live under any longer \u2013 we are free. Paul writes to the church in Rome, \u201cThere is <\/span><b>NO<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus\u201d (Romans 8:1). Paul isn\u2019t just referring to external condemnation, but also includes internal condemnation \u2013 the voice of your inner critic!\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is there any hope in silencing the condemning voice of our inner critic?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Jesus, there is always hope!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Woman Caught in Adultery<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jesus had an encounter with a group of religious leaders who brought a woman caught in adultery before him. They were attempting to trap Jesus by getting him to rule on what they should do to her in light of the law of Moses (John 8:1-11).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think about this scene from the woman\u2019s perspective. She messed up and she knows it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And now she has condemning voices all around her announcing her failure over and over again. She doesn\u2019t defend herself because she can\u2019t. She did mess up. She does <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">deserve judgment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does this sound familiar? You mess up and you know it. And now you are surrounded by the condemning voice of your inner critic announcing your failure over and over again. And you have no defense because you know your inner critic is right. You did mess up. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And you feel like you do deserve judgment or punishment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank God that this woman\u2019s encounter with Jesus doesn\u2019t end there. What happens next is powerful. Jesus doesn\u2019t ask her to defend herself or stand up for herself \u2013 she can\u2019t, so He does. Jesus engages the condemning voices accusing her, and they walk away!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He then turns his attention to her, because He wants her to see that she\u2019s free and so He asks her, \u201cWoman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She responds, \u201cNo one, sir.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And as if to solidify her freedom from all voices of condemnation, Jesus says to her, \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then neither do I condemn you. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Go now and leave your life of sin\u201d (John 8:11).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Jesus stood for her, no voice of condemnation could stand against her. And now <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jesus stands for us too!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how do we silence the condemning voice of our inner critic? <\/span><b>Bring your loudest voice to Jesus.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When your inner critic begins condemning you, make it answer to Jesus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Psalm 143:12 King David wrote a prayer that can really help us in dealing with our inner critics. He wrote, \u201cIn your unfailing love, silence my enemies; destroy all my foes, for I am your servant.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David asks God to do what he can\u2019t, which is to silence his enemies. We should ask God to do the same thing in our lives. The next time that inner critic gets loud, go to the Father and say, \u201cThis voice is loud and overwhelming. I can\u2019t defend myself against it. I need you. In your unfailing love, silence my enemy.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And in those moments may you, like the adulterous woman, look up and see not a single face of condemnation, but only the sweet face of Jesus.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<i><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking for a place to call home? <\/span><\/i><a href=\"http:\/\/www.disovergrace.com\/visit\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit Grace Church<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> online or in-person.
