Celebrate Yourself!

I got inspired from hearing a sister of mine saying that she had nothing to celebrate. They were talking about comparing themselves to others. But we have to look at everything that we have accomplished in our lives. It may not be big but it is something better than before. In this life, we will have many disappointments and no one is going to be there for us. They want to see us crumble and fall. There will be some people that are there for you of course, but since we all have our situations we may go to our lives and be "away" for a while. You have to be encouraged. Here's a little exercise: write down all the GOOD things about you. Don't focus on the bad or anything negative. You just focus on the positive. I plan to do a spa day for myself soon because I think it's necessary. At times, we are so overwhelmed with those things in life that we don't sit down, take a breath and rest. If you have Christ then this should be even better for you because He wants us to cast our cares on Him and to go on with our life because He has it all in the palm of His hands. We can celebrate ourselves by dancing and having a party with us. Lol! I know that sounds so hilarious and ridiculous but try it. I have to try this all myself and I'm telling you it works. Everyday I tend to talk to myself and yes I'm sane thank you very much. I may seem crazy to folks but it doesn't matter because I am very comfortable with doing so. I do it at home every morning or even just at random points. We have to know who we are and our identity is really in God. Why do you think you have a void inside because there's something missing and it's not celebrating by going to the club, drinking and smoking every weekend that will fill you. Christ is the only one that can satisfy our soul Whether we like it or not, we have to seek Him and ask for HIm to come in our lives so that He may take control. He knows what's best. He will be able to give us that reason to celebrate ourselves. We need to have that self- confidence.  Do things on your own and stay away from social media if that's what allows you to get into the mode of comparing yourself. It's really not good because everything that glitter ain't gold. We must pay attention to what we are doing and not what others are doing.  I picked this color because it shines bright like the sun. You are sunshine don't allow no one to tell you any different. If you need help, then have those around who will be an encouragement and builds you up, not tears you down. Get rid of those who seem to tear you down. Love your flaws each and every single one of them don't worry because we all have flaws because no one is perfect but Jesus Christ. Stay well my brother, my sister. Remember to esteem yourself in a way that's healthy and not in a way that will be unhealthy leading to destruction.
