Now I could be wrong, but....

I guess learning to love starts with loving yourself. Knowing that you have self worth is a vital motivational tool. Knowing that God Loves us and has something (mission)that we ourselves should see as worth doing. That's where I am at. Working on the life application of what a "mission" is. Jesus tell us to "GO.." but the mission might be right here, right where we are. In the state we don't want to be in, At a job we don't want to work at, with people that we cant stand to be around, in a relationship that crashed three months ago, but we don't have the wisdom to crawl out from the wreckage. I found out that most of the people i don't like to be around are like me, one way or another. i have to be still enough to see how to deal with that person so that I can allow God to work on me. I have to stay in places I don't want to be, so that God can develop a spirit of perseverance in me
