“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”

(Hebrews 4.16)

When we read the Bible daily, we’re not only convinced of who we are in God but also encouraged to strengthen our relationship with our creator. 

Being in close relationship with the Lord, we can be relaxed and at ease, knowing that our acceptance is not based on our performance or perfect behavior, but on the work Christ has done for and in us. It is based on our personal relationship with Jesus.

To like ourselves simply means we accept ourselves as God’s creation. We don’t need to like everything we do in order to like and accept ourselves.

However, the more we get closer to God, the more we want to know Him. Even the apostle Paul, who had about as close a relationship as one could probably have with God in this life, still longed for a closer relationship: “Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.”  (Philippians 3.8)

According to what the author of Hebrews says in chapter 4 verse 16, “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” God has given us unshakable grounds for believing that we can come before His throne, enter His presence and obtain the answer to our prayers.

God loves us unconditionally, and even when we make mistakes, we are no less His child.

Therefore, I encourage you to wake up every morning and say, “I like myself. I am a child of God, and He loves me. I have gifts and talents. I am a special person—and I like and accept myself.” If you do that and really believe it, it will work wonders in helping you accept the person God created you to be.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I enter now the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus and ask you to help me be at peace with my past, content with the present time, sure about my future—all while knowing that all of this is in Your loving hands, amen.
