Hello Ladies!
Moving on to Wilderness Mentality #8 "I don't deserve God's blessings because I am not worthy." It is hard to receive love when you don't love yourself. Let's see what we can learn.
Have a blessed week!

Well, I learned something new in this chapter. Reproach means blame, disgrace, and shame. We can be kept from God's best when we hang on to reproach (which is unconscious sometimes.
The Israelites couldn't receive from God as long as they were burdened down with shame, blame and disgrace. It had to be rolled off of them. We can't receive God's best either if we hang on to negative feelings about ourselves. There is no reason for this since Jesus provided the way to be forgiven and inherit all He has for us. God's Word is true but it takes faith to believe it. Let's keep on keeping on in this faith walk. Grandma Linda
I think this has been a problem for me before. I could be so kind to others and always see the best in people but I was always hard on myself. I never felt good enough or pretty enough or skinny enough etc... I grew up watching my beautiful mom always complain about the way she looked. I thought she was gorgeous and she got compliments all the time about how beautiful and thin she was. But at home she only focused on her flaws. Once I became a woman I started doing the same thing. I always got compliments but when I went home and looked in the mirror I never gave myself a compliment. It is very important that we be careful not to pass down a negative attitude to our children. Thankfully I have learned to be more nice to myself but I still struggle with it sometimes.
May we all realize how beautiful we really are!
