hey Zesters,
:) this has been one of those days but i server an amazing God :) came home from walking the dogs and thought that i would do something that i never do relax :) so i mad myself a spa salad :) then took a nice long bubble bath :) then i read my bed time story :) which is just a devotional book that i read every night for the next month and tonight's like most nights for the past week or so has really been hitting home its talking about how we allow the enemy to rob us of the truth of the kingdom when it comes to our selves... i want you to take a minute and think and write it down if you have to "What do you like about yourself ?" to be honest my first thought was " I can tell you what i don't like about myself " and why do we go there ? i know for me it is because i was picked on as a kid i got it a lot at school but i also got it a lot from my family my dad ( yes that is correct , MY DAD ) would say things like " get off your FAT lazy ass " or his ex wife would tell me " "you are eating all of Oregon" or my grandma would say things like "you are bigger then me " so to say the least i have always had body image issues. so i say this now and i want it to be loud and clear NO MORE !!! I CHOOSE TO LOVE ME THE WAY THAT I AM !!! and to start i want to face some of the lies that the enemy has told me
Lie : that i was a mistake
Truth : I am Fearfully and Wonderfully made (psalm 139:14)
Lie: that i will never be good enough
Truth : I was Chosen by Jesus ( John 15:16)
Lie: there are somethings that are unforgivable
Truth : i am free from Condemnation (Romans 8:1)
Lie: that i will never find a guy that loves me for me
Truth : I am loved dearly by God (john 16:17)
the prayer
God, i know you made me - and you don't make junk. Help me to see the lies i have been believing for what they are- lies - and then get rid of them . i want to see myself the way you see me, as your precious child. please begin the process of changing my mind and my heart so your opinion is the only one that truly matters to me .
AMEN
