The voice of the critic forces us to face our biggest fears and, in turn, listen hard for the voice of God. I can worry or I can work. I can get stuck or I can move on. I can get defensive or I can be free. Instead of giving the critic words, here are some new words to consider: I believe in the power of life. I believe in the holy resurrection. I believe nothing can separate me from the love of God. I believe I am set free.
