You Are Enough ❤️

For many of us our first thought of the day is “I didn’t get enough sleep.” Followed by “I don’t have enough time, my weight isn’t what I want it to be, there’s not enough money, I need that, I haven’t done this” etc….We’re unknowingly judging ourselves daily with statements of lack or of not being good enough or doing enough.

We have a hard time being satisfied with what we already have. Social media and the things we view can also have an effect on us, making us feel “not enough”. We live in a consumerist society where we are preoccupied with the acquisition of things. They want us to feel lack constantly! They tell us we’re not enough and that we need to acquire MORE in order to feel good enough. They lie to us and tell us we’re not pretty enough and we need that make up, those clothes or that surgery to “feel pretty” so we buy into it again and again. We also believe the lies that we’re not a good enough at taking care of the people or things around us, that we didn’t accomplish enough and that our some days are failed and terrible… all of those thoughts and lies begin to affect us and the world around us.

These subconscious negative thoughts make us question everything about ourselves. Who we are, what we look like, what we haven’t done or accomplished etc. They create a mindset of scarcity in our lives. Those thoughts don’t allow us to see the good that we do, they instead cloud the good and bring into our hearts sadness, jealousy, greed comparisons, dissatisfaction and a lack of trust in ourselves. We try to search to become “enough” by the things that we purchase, by trying to attain more money, by the accumulation of material things, we search for it by seeking popularity, attention and the approval of others. We become dependent of what others think of us and we continue the cycle of not believing in ourselves or not feeling good enough. So, we should take a minute and ask ourselves, Where am I searching to become “enough”? What lies am I buying into? What is the world or the enemy trying to feed into my mind that is not helping me live today to the fullest or to be satisfied with my blessings and what I can enjoy today? ?

I would like to challenge you to notice your thoughts of “not enough” throughout your day or your week and to treat yourself as you would TREAT SOMEONE YOU LOVE! ? remember that if it’s someone you love, you would remind them that they are loved, that they can be positive, that they’re beautiful and amazing and you focus on their strengths and the good that they do. You would tell them that they have enough to live a happy life and to enjoy the blessings of today. The problem is that we forget that it’s the person staring back at us in the mirror who can make us happy! We forget to take care of that person! Of who we are! We forgot that it’s not up to the world or to anything external for us to feel enough. That feeling comes from our connection with God and the love that we’re able to give to ourselves. We truly can be our own best friend. ?❤️?? So, give yourself the love of a friend & add God to your day because He will always come through to help you feel better.

He has said:

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8:38-39

Nothing can separate you form the love of Jesus. and if that’s all you can focus on at a time, that is good enough. ❤️ Just the fact that God has promised you that nothing can separate you from the love of Jesus is enough to remind you that you do not live in a world of scarcity but in a world of abundance! a world where you can feel the love of God. In the simple things as in nature, in the eyes of your children or your pet, In the love of friends and so much more. So when you feel those thoughts of lack remember to focus on love instead. Just knowing that God created you, that He has a plan for you from before you came into this earth and that He will never leave you but instead always LOVE YOU! That very knowledge of the love of God can bring immense peace and confidence into your soul.

Here’s another beautiful promise for you;

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. – 1 John 3:1

I believe that the real test of our lives is to learn to look inward, to help ourselves internally to overcome the different challenges we face. And the best way to do that is to feel a connection to our Father in Heaven and our Savior Jesus Christ. When we can feel that God has a perfect plan for us, that He loves us and as we try our best to remember that, we will be better able to give ourselves more love. And to love ourselves enough to want to do the best for our soul, our mind and ourselves physically as well. So, remember, you are in control of your thoughts. No one else has power over us unless we “allow them” to do so. If we know where to focus our thoughts, to make them positive, they will help strengthen us, change our feelings and our actions which will create some amazing results for our lives.

When we learn to look inward we have a stronger desire to love ourselves for who God created us to be. He wants us to truly feel the AMAZING LOVE THAT HE HAS FOR EACH ONE OF US!! ❤️ & He wants us to know that we can GIVE OURSELVES MORE LOVE TOO! we can remind ourselves that we already were born with Divine light and we can continue to grow that in our lives. We don’t need to compare ourselves to anyone, instead we will be reminded to trust in the amazing God who knows what is best for our lives. We trust in a loving God who has already given us in abundance and we focus on our blessings and on the love that were able to have today instead of focusing on lack or negativity (which is what the enemy wants) We help ourselves to RAISE OUR FREQUENCY! To reach new heights with God and to allow our thoughts, our minds and Spirits to be centered and lifted on God. On all that is good! The good that we do and all that we’re blessed to have. ?❤️??

At the end of it all, you’ve always been enough. You’ve been perfectly made from the beginning. Your soul was created by a loving God. He thought of creating YOU!!! That alone is amazing on its own!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Your value doesn’t come from material things, from an instagram or Facebook post. It doesn’t come from popularity, from having the perfect body or from having millions of dollars and seeking recognition or power. Some things in life may bring comfort, but none of those things bring true joy, happiness and real lasting peace. That can only come from within each one of us. We have to remember that we are enough, because we are CHILDREN OF GOD, Our value is already determined. It is only up to us to look inward to find it and to bring it out and start feeling that love more and more within us and around us.

So, Trust Him and know that true and lasting peace starts with your thoughts and your connection to yourself and to God. All other things are mostly distractions or ways to teach us to manage our surroundings…But, we’re really here on earth to learn to LOVE God, LOVE ourselves, LOVE our families and LOVE our neighbors, LOVE our blessings and all that we have today. ❤️❤️❤️

Focus on the Good and learn from the hard times. Remind yourself today that you’re created by a Loving God and you want to focus on LOVING YOUR LIFE TODAY & not hating it. ??‍♀️ …Move forward with Faith in God and trusting in yourself to recognize the lies that the world and the enemy try to feed you. Treat yourself as someone you LOVE! ❤️ Remember that God wants you to lean this! To really do this for yourself and to combat and have victory over those negative thoughts and feelings. The more you practice changing those thoughts, the better you’ll get at it. Life is what we want to make it. Let go of the lack and focus on the good and on the love and all of the amazing abundance that surrounds you today and always. ?❤️??

Hope that you can make it tonight at 6pm and give yourself some love by taking care of yourself and strengthening your Body, Mind & Spirit.?❤️??

Our Spiritual goal is to focus on creating thoughts that are Loving toward ourselves and rejecting the negativity.

Our physical goal is to move a little more and to remove processed foods and try to eat as natural as possible. ???

Take it one day at a time. You’ve got this! Love you all! ?

Love,

Lili ?
