The other day somebody asked me to name the one thing I would change about myself if I could. I do not mean to sound arrogant, but I could not think of anything. Now there are plenty of areas in which I need and want to improve, but here is my point, I do not sit around thinking about everything that is wrong with me, I do not have all must flaws, weaknesses and shortcomings at the forefront of my mind. I do not go through the day reliving my failure, bearing myself for past mistakes or letting a negative recording condemn me for everything than I am not. I say this with humility, I like myself. I am happy with who I am. I am proud of who God made me to be? Again, I am not bragging on me, I am bragging on the goodness of God. I know that I am a masterpiece. I know that I am His prized possession, fearfully and wonderfully made.
God has His own timetable. While He is changing me, I am going to feel good about who I am. I am going to keep my head held high and enjoy my life, knowing that God will get me to where I am supposed to be. I feel good about myself. I am proud of who God made med to be. Most people cannot do this. They say, I would feel good about myself if I did not have these weakness. I would be happy with who I am if I were a better parent, if I were more patient, if I were not jealous. I would hold my head high if I had not made these mistakes, if I had not blown the relationship. There will always be some reason why you won’t feel good about who you are. If you are going to live in victory, you have to put your foot down and say, that is it. I am done being against myself. I am done feeling wrong on the inside. I am gone focusing on my weaknesses. And I am going to enjoy the glory I am in right now.
Now, when you do this, do not be purposed if every voice tells you, you are a hypocrite. You cannot feel good about yourself. You still have that weakness. This is when you must have the boldness to say, yes, that is true. I am growing and I am changing. In the meantime, I feel good about me. Your destiny is too important to let that heaviness weight you down. Your time is too valuable to be sitting around thing about everything that is wrong with you. That is taking away your joy, your energy, your creativity and your anointing. Start looking away from all of that. You are not going to change overnight, it is going to happen little by little. With who you are even though you have
But if you are always down on yourself because you thinking you are not growing as fast as you would like, you will live frustrated. It is freeing when you can be happy with who you are even though you have some areas in which you still need to improve.
