Sorry I am late today, I had to go to the dentist.
Self-esteem. The only kind of self-esteem that is real is the kind that is not diminished by the disrespect of others.
Do you feel good about yourself until someone insults you? Then what you have is not self-esteem. Are you happy until someone says that they don't like your hair? Happy until someone demeans you? Then what you have is circumstantial, it is not true self esteem.
Our value does not come from the approval of others. God tells us who we are. He tells us that we are loved and valuable. The insults of others do not change God's opinion of us. Do not let the hateful words or unkind actions of others define you. God tells you who you are. Remember who you are.
The only kind of self-esteem that is real is the kind that comes from God. It is not diminished by the disrespect of others. You do not diminish the majesty of Niagara Falls by spitting into the water. Remember who and whose you are.
It's a beautiful day in God's world. Be sure to see the good.
