HAVING A HEALTHY SELF-ESTEEM Do you ever get into a funk when things arent going your way? You cant explain it but one thing for sure, when youre in a funk, its difficult seeing good in anything. Therell be times when you feel like throwing in the towel and giving up when you hit your funk moment. However, its always important for you to remember that you were created with a purpose and a mission. You may not understand it, but I promise you, God didnt create you without a purpose. Let me help you out with this. Your life has been divinely ordered by God to be the best that you can be. All you need to do is maintain a healthy self-esteem and know youre special in Gods sight. In this life, Ive discovered that people place too much emphasis on material acquisition instead of personal development. Whenever you place your value on your car, house, financial portfolio, or impressing people, youre setting yourself up for disappointment. While theres nothing wrong with having nice things, its more important that you feel good about yourself. Unless you feel good about yourself, youll never be able to enjoy what God has for you. The old adage, money is the key to happiness is a lie because your relationship with God will do more for you than money ever can. In this spiritual journey, I want to deposit into your spirit a few things about building a healthy self-esteem. The first thing you need to do is love yourself because when you love yourself, youll only want the best for yourself. Loving yourself can be difficult at times, if you try to measure up to the standards of others, but Im here to let you know everything that looks good isnt good for you. Get into your spirit that God has made you so unique that you ought to love yourself better than anyone else can. The second thing you need to do is build on your relationship with God. Heres something to meditate on. The more time you spend with God, the more He reveals how special you are. In a real sense, God will begin showing you what youre capable of doing, if you just submit your life over to Him. Building a healthy self-esteem starts with accepting God as your Lord and Savior. Once you do this, you have importance, value, and significance. In writing to the people of Philippi, the apostle Paul dropped these words of wisdom when he said, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Please dont miss this last point. Your self-worth isnt dictated nor prescribed by what others can do for you, but its based on the Spirit of the Living God living within you giving you strength, courage, and boldness to make it. Thats my word for you. Never think less of yourself because youre a child of Almighty God. Anytime youre identified as a child of God, youre automatically somebody whos anointed and appointed to do great things.
