Myself

God,
Why is it so hard to love myself?
I have received so much love,
yet I can't seem to accept it.
God,
Why do I place my value on what I do,
instead of who you have created me to be.
It seems like I deceive myself into thinking
people love what I do instead of me.
Jesus,
Why can't I forgive myself for the mistakes I've made?
Even when you've died so I can be forgiven,
I don't let myself accept your forgiveness.
Lord,
Help me to find my worth in You,
teach me how to forgive myself,
and let your Holy Spirit work in me.
So I can come to love,
the person you have created me to be.
