Book Cover & Preview Text
Tori thought about what Grandma Kay said and agreed with her. “Yes, Grandma. I don’t remember when I started thinking negative things about myself and others.” Tori continued, “Sometimes, I don’t even realize I am thinking those things. They come to my brain quickly.” “You are right,” said Grandma. “Once the seed is there and you keep watering it, it will get stronger. You will start thinking similar things more often. It is easier to uproot a seed before it is a tree,” said Grandma. She encouraged Tori that even grown-ups are still learning to replace negative thoughts about themselves with the truth from God’s Word.
