Celebrate Yourself. Why You Should Not Look Down on Yourself
Philemon 1:6. “That the communication of your faith may become effectual by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every good thing which is IN YOU in Christ Jesus.”
God desires that we must acknowledge the good things in them. Someone wishes they were taller, whereas the taller one wishes they were shorter. They haven’t learned to celebrate the goodness of being tall or being short.
Even scriptures say you should love your neighbours as you love yourself. Start by loving yourself,, and you will be able to love others. When you hate yourself, you will become jealous of others outside.
Someone had a small spot on the face, and every day would go to the mirror and concentrate on the spot and ignored the rest of the face that was spotless. Some people look down on themselves and wish they were someone else. Acknowledge and celebrate that you are unique and be happy about it.
This world produced only one of your kind, and that is enough reason to rejoice and praise God. Psalm 139:14.” I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well. “
Acknowledge that you are of great value. You need to understand that what you don’t value, you abuse. If you don’t value yourself or what you have, you will abuse yourself or abuse what you have. All the gold in heaven could not buy you; the precious blood did the job. That’s your value.
1 Peter 1:18-19 “knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, the blood of Christ.”
CONFESSION
I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I am unique and I am talented. I am a star. I am a star, and I say again, I am a star. In Jesus Name. Amen
