The first thing that I want you to hear is that I Love you!
Ask for the Grace to remember this Message and be ever grateful for it.
We pass many days not mentioning it to ourselves. “Jesus Loves me.”
Yet I tell you this Message strengthens your soul each time you say it.
We all need nourishment and this is good nourishment for our souls each time we express it to ourselves.
Now, you can see by past experience that we can make ourselves feel very low by calling ourselves names --- stupid, silly, foolish.
Then we take on that persona. Right?
We act foolish, say foolish things almost as if we have to live up to our image of ourselves as being foolish, acting foolish.
Do you see what I mean?
So, if you put that name foolish aside and now tell yourself that Jesus Loves me, you will act differently, react differently.
Now do not go about saying “I am so foolish but Jesus still Loves me.”
Do you see how you still want to insert you into your perception of you?
But that is not the True Message.
“Jesus Loves me” and that is all you tell yourself.
Let His Love be allowed to rule in your life without the addition of your comments on you.
Lordy, how else can I say it?
I want you to begin to define yourself through Jesus’ Eyes of Love and not your perception of you that carries no weight what so ever.
Those seem like harsh words, but no, they are Truthful Words which are Eternally sound and filled with Love.
Your words to you are not Eternal and many times not filled with Love, but more often with criticism of yourself before anyone else has the chance to say it before you.
Call yourself ‘His Beloved One’, ‘His Beloved One.’
What an impact on your life because it is no longer about you, but about the One to whom you belong.
It is your choice whether you use words to yourself that either build you up or run you down. Did you realize that?
So, saying “I am just foolish” to yourself does not carry any power like “I am His Beloved One.”
Which will fill your soul with the power of Love and Grace it needs to see you through your day?
“I am His Beloved One.”
“Jesus Loves me.”
Nourish your souls with these profound Eternal Words.
