Good morning, Mighty Women of God. I pray that you are blessed by today's blog and also that you are blessed with whatever you are believing the Lord God to do for you in your life.
Today I was reading The Everyday Life Bible and so I'm blogging something from her Bible. Let me just say this, she does not have a special bible but she has quotes from different scriptures in the bible.
We sometimes fall into the trap of thinking we are the worst people o the face of the earth and that nobody does as many wrong things as we do. But Romans 3:23 says, that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory (excellence) of God. Every man, woman, or child who was every born, or ever will be, has a problem with sin. But the good news is that God has provided an answer to our dilemma.
Satan wants us to feel wrong, worthless, and like hopeless messes. He knows that without confidence we will never step out in faith to fulfill our God-ordained destinies. He know if he can keep us in the prison of self-hatred, self-rejection, or just plain not liking ourselves that he will prevent us from make progress forever being a threat to him and to the kingdom of darkness.
When I started "Spiritual Growth for Women Ministry", I promise that I would always be open for you to ask me anything or pray about anything.
In fact, the back of my books read, there is nothing that will every tell me that will surprise or make me to think that I'm a better woman. I am not homeless right now, but I used to be. I am not living in a women's shelter, but I used to be. I am not on drugs right now, but I used to be. I am not in a twelve step program but I used to be. The Lord has entrusted me with this ministry, because I used to be . . .
Heavenly Father I thank you that today is my special day. Today is the day that I'm just going to receive Your love for me. To receive Your forgiveness for me. Today is the day that I am going to love myself and hug myself. Today is the day that I'll look in the mirror and say, "I love you" to me. And Lord and I know that You love me Lord through all my impurities and through all my sin, You are always loving me. Thank you Lord, Amen.
