Learning to Love Ourselves
8:55:00 AM
Many people today struggle with trying to build relationships with others. Too often it can be because they have a very poor relationship with themselves.
Matthew 19:19 says that you are to love your neighbor as yourself. But loving yourself sometimes can be the most difficult thing to do because we can have a very negative view of ourselves.
If we don't like ourselves, it's for sure we won't like other people.
So how do we change the way we look at ourselves. I want to focus on one aspect which has helped me tremendously in the past.
Proverbs 18:21 says that death and life are in the power of the tongue. In other words, what you confess is what you will become.
I believe that when we confess what God says about us from the Word of God, we become that over a period of time. Below I have enlisted a few confessions that we can all make over ourselves:
- I am special.
- I am loved.
- I am unique.
- I am a child of God.
- I am created in His image.
- I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
- I am created a little lower than the angels.
- I am born an original and not a cheap copy.
- I am a child of the King, the royal blood of heaven is in my veins.
- I am a victor in Christ Jesus and not a victim.
- I am a winner.
- I am the chosen one in Christ Jesus.
- I am not a mistake.
