HEALING YOUR SELF ESTEEM
To say that our self esteem is low is to compare it to something higher. But to be able to attain that higher degree could only mean that there is still something beyond that. In truth, it is not an increase in self esteem that we should aim for,but a complete healing of our wounded self worth.
Before we could attain true healing, we must first recognise our wounds.To rebuild our sense of worth we must first acknowledge how broken it really is.
How firm is that foundation from which your self worth is currently built?
Are you confidence because you are beautiful? What if you mingle among others who are more beautiful than you? For how long will you stay that way? What happens when you don't get people to admire you like they use to?
Are you secure with your success? What if the business or reputation you've built suddenly falls what will be your worth by then?
Are you confident because you are talented? What if you are involved in an accident that takes your leg or tongue and for that reason you won't be able to dance or sing again. What will become of you by then?
Are you secure because of your family or friends? What happens When they leave or they are no more?
All our effort of increasing our self esteem is futile for in the end, all such effort leads only to fear, the fear of loosing everything we have gained. The healing of our wounds can no longer depend on the external actions we take,the only way to healing is to be healed from within because our wounds are not of the body but of the soul. Deep in our soul,we feel a great emptiness and uncertainty, we feel compelled to measure up to the standards of other people while at the same, not being able to measure up to our own sense of wholeness. We even go to the extent of hiding ourselves with masks of perfection and of beauty. Beyond that mask however, we feel inadequate and tired of trying over and over again.
Healing begins when we stop our frantic effort to keep up with others
Healing begins when we face the worst pictures of ourselves and still believe that we still worth something. You are worth more than you ever thought your self to be.your worth is not in how you realize how broken you are, only in being broken can you be healed by knowing how valuable you are to the only one who can heal you.
Note..Your real worth is your likeness to God. your worth is not in what you possess but what possesses you. Your fearfully and wonderfully made yes you!
