Maggie, Mom & I have been reading Lies Women Believe together. We finished it a couple weeks ago and let me tell you...it was such a blessing! There are so many lies that we believe that we don't even realize. It's definitely an eye-opener. It covers lies women believe about:
God
Themselves
Sin
Priorities
Marriage
Children
Emotions
Circumstances
She gives several lies with each category and then truths to counteract those lies. Some of the stuff she covers is so basic, yet when we really think about it we find that we can fall into the trap of believing those lies. Take, for example, the lie: God is not really enough. Most of us would automatically say, Of course He is! But, do our lives show it? Are we resting completely in Him? Do we need Him plus good health, plus a husband, plus children, plus *fill in the blank*? The truth is: God IS enough. If I have Him, I have all I need. (Psalm 23:1 ~ The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.)
If you get a chance, I highly recommend this book. I think it's definitely something that every woman should read.
