I think I’m pretty hard on myself. How about you?
When I came across this prayer, it seemed obvious to me that the Lord was speaking directly to me. Do you think He talks to you?
I often see myself as one of my own worst enemies. How about you?
Thankfully, God doesn’t expect perfection. We’re all works in progress and will never reach perfection in this life. It doesn’t matter how hard we try, we just can’t live up to our own expectations. We need to come to terms with the fact that, despite our weaknesses, God loves us just the way we are.
It’s important to forgive others, but probably more important to accept God’s grace and forgiveness for ourselves.
I hope the above prayer will encourage you today.
Can you stop beating yourself up?
