"OUT OF THE DARKNESS" POST 22

We all must learn to forgive ourselves for any mistakes we have made both known and unknown.  These things we perceive as problems are actually learning experiences that are set before us to help us grow.  We must allow ourselves to feel how we feel about those things and continue loving ourselves no matter what.  I let go of control of any outcomes to situations. I have learned to remain calm in any circumstance.  I continue to love myself when its hard to.  We are human, we all make mistakes.

I have grown in my capacity to be grateful in the moment;  to be happy with what I have now.

Simplify your life; not much is needed for true happiness.  I take heart and consider all the times I did not get WHAT I DID NOT WANT.  I am proud of my resilience.  I give myself credit for the times I made it through tough circumstances when it felt I was not going to.  I care deeply, share freely and live bravely.  Being grateful is the secret to happiness; with gratefulness comes much more to be grateful for.  I trust in the Divine's perfect blessings and I believe in the Divine's perfect timing in my life.

I know now how much I am loved and I know what my true worth is.  I deserve self-respect and the respect of others, nothing less.

I do not fear anything that is to come.  I have a positive mindset at all times.  I speak my truth and honor the boundaries I have put in place. I have taken myself out of the fear of loving my inner self.  I am worthy of being a priority.  I know that I am worthy of coming first.  My feelings are that I will speak true words or stand in silence.

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Philippians 4:13
