4月8日 SWAGGA TestPost comments at www.freshmanna.spaces.live.com
GETTIN’ MY SWAGGA BACK For an early age, I have had severe issues with my self-esteem. I have heard most of my life that I would be more attractive if I lost weight. This started when I was about 7 years and is still going until this day. I w as always told, if you would lose weight, wear contacts, put on make-up, or dress differently; people could see how beautiful the outside image matched the wonderful person I was on the inside. Until I made my 28th birthday( I’m 31 now) did I wake up and realize that GOD makes nothing ugly. As far as my little head can think I have never read of anything in the bible that referred anything GOD created to be known as ugly or unattractive; all things created by GOD is wonderful. In the scripture above, David is praising GOD for uniqueness that is inside and outside of him. GOD knows and knew everything that about us from our bad habits to the little things he gave to us to make us totally different from any other person. Each time David thought about how wonderfully GOD made him, his soul was delighted. The same should occur within us. GOD took his time with each and every creature he created; each one of us has things in us that can not be found in or on one else. So when you have doubts about your physical appearance or issues with your personality, remember that GOD made you fearfully and wonderfully! To Have Appropriate Self-Esteem Father, Jesus said that I am to love You wi th all my heart and with all my soul and with all my mind (intellect). This is the great (most important, principal) and first commandment. And a second is like it: I shall love my neighbor as [I do] myself. I desire to have appropriate self-esteem, and to receive myself just as You created me. Father, You love me for who I am. It was You Who created me, and You Who formed me. You have redeemed me [ransomed me by paying a price instead of leaving me a captive of Satan]. You have called me by my name. You have said that I am Yours. Before You formed me in the womb You knew and approved of me [as Your chosen instrument], and before I was born You separated and set me apart, consecrating me; [and] You appointed me for a special work. You know me by name, and I have also found favor in Your sight. I rate my ability with sober judgment, according to the degree of faith apportioned by You to me. As in one physical body we have many parts (organs, members) and all of these parts do not have the same function or use, so we are one body in Christ and individually we are parts one of another [mutually dependent on one another]. Thank You for giving to me gifts (faculties, talents, qualities) that are different and unique according to the grace given me. I will develop and use them. I face my fears of inadequacy, failure and rejection, knowing that perfect love ca sts out fear. You created my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful; I know that full well. I accept myself because You have received, welcomed and accepted me in the Beloved. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen. Scripture References:Matthew 22:37-39 AMP Romans 12:3-6 AMPIsaiah 43:1 AMP 1 John 4:18Jeremiah 1:5 AMP Psalm 139:13,14 NIVExodus 33:12 AMP Ephesians 1:6 评论 (2)
