God is not dwelling on the times we got knocked down. He is not dwelling on our faults. No, God sees our few moves. God focuses on the things you are doing right. He sees the best in you. You may not always control your temper as you know you should. Or you may slip and say thing you wish you had not said. Seek forgiveness from God and from anyone you may have offended but do not go around beating yourself up, living in condemnation. As long as you are pressing forward, you can hold you head up high, knowing that you are a work in progress and God is in the process of changing you. He is looking at your few good moves.
That is not to condone wrongdoing, but it truth is, we all have areas in which we need to improve. We cannot become so focused on our faults that we cease to enjoy who God made us to be. You have got to be faults that we cease to enjoy who God made us to be. You have got to be happy with who you are right now and accepts yourself, faults and all.
An important factor in seeing yourself God’s way is to understand your intrinsic sense of value whether you make the right moves or the wrong moves. Too often we faults, weaknesses, past mistakes and failures. Rejection and other painful experience steal our self-esteem and make us feel unwanted and insecure.
Your sense of value cannot be based on your achievements how well you perform, how somebody else treats you or how popular or successful you are. His unique creation, you have something to offer this world that nobody else has that nobody else can be.
It is vital that you accept yourself and learn to be happy with who God make you to be. If you want to truly enjoy your life, you must be at peace with yourself. Many people constantly feel badly about themselves. They are overly critical of themselves, living with all sorts of self-imposed guilt and condemnation. No wonder they are not happy, they have a war going in inside. They are not a peace with themselves. And if you cannot get along with yourself, you will never get along with other people. The place to start is by being happy with who God made you to be.
