According to the bible; "Love is kind, Love is patient, Love is not jealous." So I ask myself; Am I kind to myself? Do I show myself the affection the bible speaks of? Am I patient with myself? Do I speak to myself with patience and honesty as the bible speaks of? What is it about jealousy that I feel in my heart? Is that not an act of lack of love within me? So I wonder why I do not love myself in the way my Creator had intended me to love others? The bible Goes on to say; "It does not take into account a wrong suffered." So I ask myself, why do I constantly beat myself up about the mistakes I make in my life? "Believes all things, hopes all things..." Why do I not believe in myself and hope for the best for myself? "Love never fails" Have I failed in loving myself?
