Hello everyone! Today I make a declaration in following with yesterday's blog. I write it down and make it plain. This is a way of life for me now. This is something I am doing for me. No more apologies. May it encourage you and bring you to a place of freedom! God is indeed good!
********************************************* I have apologized for dumb stuff because of the need for approval from others. I have apologized for being me because of the need for approval from others. I have tried to please everyone most of my life because of the need for approval from others. I have gained and lost weight because of the need for approval from others. I have hidden behind my insecurities because of the need for approval from others.
I have made life-altering decisions that were bad for me because of the need for approval from others.
I have stayed in a bad relationship, more than once, because of the need for approval from others.
I have walked in shame and rejection because of the need for approval from others. No more do I need their approval! I have Jesus's approval and I need no other's! No more do I walk in shame and rejection! No more do I people-please and practice false humility! I am free! I walk in that freedom! I walk in Jesus' acceptance and righteousness! Evil beware. I know who and Whose I am!
Romans 6:6
I died with Christ and died to the power of sin's (shame, rejection, and the need for approval from others) rule in my life.
********************************************* What do you need to declare today? What do you need to die to today? Until next time, Elizabeth
