Love Yourself - Refreshing The "Ashamed" Soul

Have you ever been ashamed of being you? I have! I did not love who I was because I didn't think others did. Rejection, being misunderstood, talked about, and a slew of other things created this perception that I was not loveable.

 

We can't wait for others to tell us or show us that we are worthy to be loved. We have to get a hold of the One who is the very essence of what we long for...to be loved. That One is God! God is Love! 

 

Shame will tell us we are not worthy to be loved because of our imperfections or who we really are. But when we learn that we are already loved by God, we can start to embrace His perfect love to love ourselves even with our imperfections.

 

Stop striving to achieve the perfect you in order to be accepted and love the you that you are NOW!
