I think your worth is contributed to what gets most of your time. How often do you uplift yourself and accept your flaws? How many times have you really looked in the mirror and excepted what you saw and realized the changes that needed to be done to the mental you and made steps to change? The physical you is not a mistake no matter what is your skin color, size, or anything else that makes you unique. God does not make mistakes. Even though you may not want to accept you, God is always in love with you because He made you.
Adjust what gets your time. If you spend time on what
is not worthy of you it will eventually reveal itself and break pieces of you in the process. Then begins the process of letting go which is never easy, not to the flesh. Standing up for yourself is never easy. Many times our lives put us in situations that makes it hard for us to forgive. How can a woman deal with the little girl in her that was abused? How can a woman who's husband is unfaithful to her, know what is next? How does the woman who is being beat by her husband know how to save the life of her and her children? How can a cruel woman come to terms with the deceptive and unkind things she has done? The answer is Christ. Seek Him with all your heart, mind and soul.
We are put here to praise God but many of us have to reach our bottoms before we do just that. Even when we decide to serve God that does not mean we will not be tested. When we really give ourselves to God the test of love, faith, hope and the will to never give up on God begins. There is a reason why God is called the Bride Groom and we are called the Bride. There is all this anticipation to see the Lord and in the process of giving Him your all, you fall in love with Him. You can not wait to see Him. You must finish this life like a bride and groom must finish the wedding preparations, properly. Only then can you see Him for eternity. God is always there waiting patiently. Like any union it will be tested. Until we make it to God's arms we must fight and endure.
For many years I was my own worst enemy. I never felt what I was doing was worthy of Christ's love. The truth is Christ paid the price for us so we could be forgiven, it is our lack to forgive ourselves that impedes our growth in Christ. We must not be lukewarm, There is nothing left for us to do but to embrace Him. I had to learn that even when I felt He was not there, He was. That was a hard lesson for me to learn and often felt alone and forsaken. I knew it was of myself and not of the Lord, this made me feel even more unworthy. for so long I did not know how to get passed this so I began to read God's word. I thought it would be this miraculous growth but it was slow. Some days were better than others but I promised never to give up even though I wanted too. You must fight, you are a victor and you are not alone. Be Blessed.
