My best self.
Looking at myself and striving to give my best knowing that you are perfectly okay with that.
It doesn’t need to be done perfectly, it just needs to be done at my personal best.
My best is enough.
I am enough.
I have learned that this is love. Loving people at their best. We all have different levels of how this looks.
They say comparison is the thief of joy. I can’t stress enough how important this is for me to engrave into my head EVERY SINGLE DAY. Waking up and knowing that there will always be someone out there who can do it better, someone who’s stronger, smarter, prettier.
I will never be happy with myself and the way You created me if I’m constantly looking at others lives wishing I had what they have.
Lord, you’ve shown me that you love me perfectly where I’m at. I don’t need to be THE best for you today or any day. I just need to be MY best.
You have let me feel your love through the way others have loved me in these last 4 months. These people whom I thought I was going to be ministering to, You had ministering to me.
So that I now I am able to go out and give that love You’ve given me, to others. A love that is meeting people and loving them where they’re at, and that alone being perfectly enough.
