Some people will accept you for who you are, not for what you can do for them. Other people will accept you for what you have, for what you can do for them, for always giving to them.
Whether things are okay or not, whether you are winning or losing, whether you are passing or failing, if you want to experience the life that God has created for you, you must first accept yourself.
What does it mean to accept oneself? Self-acceptance is everything. You need it when things are good. You need to accept who you are when things are good, and you need to accept yourself when things are not going well. Do not reject yourself before other do it for you.
If you do not take care of yourself, if you do not know what you want in your life, people will take advantage of you. Do not let that happen. Because you are not here to be accepted by all. You are here to love yourself, to live for you. You are enough. You don’t need the whole world to love you.
You need you to love you. You need you to beat your own path forward. When things are tough, never forget to love youself. when you are alone, love yourself. When you are weak, do not reject yourself. When you are down, feeling tired, feeling exhausted, do not reject yourself. Because God loves you. He does. He will never let you down.
No matter what you are going through in your life, you can make it through. Do not focus on what is not working. Instead, focus on what you are doing to bring more light into your life.
Because life is light. Because you are the light of the world. If you want to enjoy your light, you must choose you. Don’t try to control other people. Because you can’t. But you can control yourself. If you can control yourself, you can control your life.
Before you go, remember this: ‘When other people reject you, don’t reject yourself.’
