Acceptance, Acknowledgement and Appreciation - Pastor Ekpenyong

Accepting the reality of your life sounds like it should be easy enough. But many people hold to their own version of reality. It may be based in regret, disappointment, denial, or just waiting for something better.

A lack of self-acceptance can hold you back in every area of your life. It affects your confidence and can prevent you from reaching your full potential.

People with high self-acceptance are more resilient to criticism and recognise that their value goes beyond personal attributes and actions.

When you consider what you have and cultivate deep gratitude for it, you'll be amazed at the possibilities open to you. (Philemon 6).

There is the acknowledgement of "such as I have" that strangles the envy and bitter bone in you, such that in magnifying it, you'll be happiest for your lot. (Acts 3:6).

While you may still be further away from the life of your dream, it is important to realise that the acceptance, acknowledgement and appreciation for your process and journey will add winds to your sail.

We love you and call you BLESSED!
