Stop Calling Yourself Forgetful

I often see people around me saying:
“I’m getting old.”
“My memory is slipping.”
“I’m so forgetful these days.”
The Bible says our words are a serious matter:
Proverbs 18:21
Words do not just describe reality; they shape it.
When we speak decline over ourselves, we agree with a story God never wrote.
Paul writes:
1 Corinthians 2:16
Christ’s mind is not foggy or confused.
When you speak what God says, you are not pretending.
You align with the redemption He purchased for you.
A renewed mind often begins with a renewed confession.
What you call yourself becomes what you begin to expect, so choose the words that match what He has given.
