How can we learn to accept ourselves?

By

How can we learn to accept ourselves just the way we are and grow in security and contentment? In order to find true, Godly contentment, we must accept our identity in Christ! It is a misnomer to think we will ever love or fully accept ourselves, for to do so would mean we would either have to never sin or pretend it doesn’t exist. When we have a true understanding of nature, we will see that we need Christ even more. Only then will we find the peace we are searching for as we receive Jesus as our Savior.  Even so,…

Sometimes I feel like being a Christian is so boring. Is it bad to feel that way?

Sometimes I feel like being a Christian is so boring. Is it bad to feel that way? Being a Christian doesn’t mean we are not allowed to have feelings, so please don’t be hard on yourself for questioning the status and experience of your faith.

What should we do when are REALLY angry? Should we tell God?

By

Anger is an emotion that usually rears its ugly head when an injustice is felt. Sometimes that injustice is real — like the sudden death of a loved one. Other times it is personal — like when life doesn’t go your way. Sometimes anger is the response to feeling attacked or treated unfairly. No matter what the source of the anger, it wells up inside and often seems uncontrollable. The most important thing to remember is that anger, in and of itself is not wrong.
