In case you need a reminder today!!! Especially if you live in Atlanta and have had THREE DAYS OF RAIN 🌧 and it’s making it reallllllly hard for you to stay positive/in a good mood when you have to get out and about — the “you” may or may not be ME today.
I’ve been annoyed at this mug since I’ve had it.
Why can’t I hold it in my dominate, right hand with the words facing out. It’s always felt “backwards”.
Until today.
When I realized. OHHHHH, this is a message for ME.
Every time I take a sip, I’m supposed to get the reminder that I am seriously awesome.
Some days that’s easy.
Some days are harder then others.
My need for striving to be the best version of myself sometimes gets in the way of me seeking the Lord for provision—putting the responsibility on my shoulders alone.
Which is GREAT for productivity.
Not so great in relationships.
Because I realize when I’m being the most critical/hard on myself, that’s when I’m the most critical and hard on my people.
I must receive grace to give it.
If I’m not believing in my awesomeness, it’s dang near impossible for me to REALLY love on someone and encourage them in their awesomeness.
I’d even dare say this is Biblical — love others AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF.
How do I love others if I’m not loving myself??
