Self talk, talk to God

Jeremiah 29:12 – “Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.”

For a long time, I never considered the fact that I had a relationship with myself. It wasn’t something I consciously thought about until God began revealing its significance to me. I came to realize that I spend more time with myself than with anyone else, and that relationship—how I think, speak, and interact with myself—deeply impacts my well-being, my faith, and my perspective on life.

The same is true for you. The conversations you have in your own mind shape your emotions, decisions, and even your spiritual growth. But here’s the key: instead of relying on self-talk, which can be limited by personal doubts and fears, we should turn to God in prayer and conversation. He is the ultimate source of wisdom, encouragement, and truth.

When we replace self-talk with dialogue with God, we shift from leaning on our own understanding to receiving divine guidance. Rather than replaying worries or uncertainties in our minds, we can bring them to Him, allowing His peace and wisdom to transform our thoughts.

So, the next time you catch yourself lost in self-talk, redirect those words to God. Invite Him into your thoughts, ask for His insight, and trust that He is listening. A relationship with yourself is important—but a relationship with God is life-changing.
