Those weeds (thoughts) can seem to choke the life right out of you can't they?
If something feels so depressing and over whelming it isn't from God. SOOOOO why do you believe it?
I know...I know...cause you are use to it, habit, it is comfortable, it's what we know, it's what we've believed, and even in the pain it causes it may feel comfortable cause it's where you've been all these years.
Time for something greater? Time for something better? Are you ready? Are you ready to stop believing the lies?
You can do this. If you are willing. God is. Easy? No! But worth working for.
You must choose to stop believing what the devil says. Feels shaky to walk a different path than you are use to but hey the one you've been walking hasn't gotten you to far.
dabs can you hear God voice? Ask Him what he thinks of these lies you are believing. One at a time. When they pop up in your head, turn to Him and immediately ask, what do You say? And listen. Maybe even write down what He says.
What does God say? Ask Him.
Scripture says......
1 Corinthians 1:26-28
For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are.
1 Peter 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Sounds to me like being a "misfit" is exactly the type God is seeking.

Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.
