I am Worthy, I am of God
Love Thyself
For most of my life, this idea has been extremely foreign to me. I didn't understand what loving oneself meant and often wondered how can I love myself when I know myself so well...when I know my terrible faults and my inadequacies, when I know how unkind I can be at times, when so many times in my life I feel inadequate and just don't measure up?
I understand that I have a long journey in front of me towards spiritual perfection, and possibly many more lifetimes before the cycle of reincarnation is through with me. And by knowing all my imperfections, how can I possibly love myself?
You see, I, as with many other people who don't love themselves, had made a grave, but common, error, of attempting to love the part of me that is still learning and still making many mistakes. I couldn't see the inner part of myself, the glorious part of me that is of God, the never-dying part of me - the perfect and true and gloriously beautiful God part of me. But then finally it clicked, it was as if overnight I understood this concept, and I wondered why after more than twenty years of attempting to understand that I finally did.
...love thyself.
...and you will be loving God
...love the part of God inside you and inside each and every being
...and say...I am worthy because I am of God.
Forever.
