Prayer Focus

Heart Guide for Lesson 18:
Love Thyself

Time's up! It's time to accept these 'unacceptable' things about yourself—they aren't going away and life really won't get much better until you do! Go over each grace killer individually and make sure you are making real peace in your heart and mind with God and yourself about it. Then move on to the next one. Remember, we hate sins, not the sinner!

Let your prayer be:

Father, since you accept this about me, I choose by an act of my will to break agreement with all of my fear and hatred for ____ being in my life the way it is, and I choose to fully accept it about myself because you do. I will trust that You are working to ultimately free me of it, and in the meantime I will choose to be a friend to myself, rather than an enemy.

As you do each one, check it off. But make sure you pray it through thoroughly!
