ACCEPTANCE

Happy is the man who trusts in the Lord. Commit all your ways to the Lord and He will guide you. You are what you are and God made you this way. You have been wired in this way for a purpose. The purpose only God knows. You may stand apart from the crowd but you must be sincere in the way you are. Many reject the way they are because of non acceptance. This is a sure way of killing yourself. You kill yourself by non acceptance. God accepts you the way you are. Do not try and please others, for in this way you fail to accept yourself. Loving others is to accept them as they are. They have their own history and experience that has moulded the way they are. It is not for you to judge them but to love them. When you impose your ways on others then you are manipulating or forcing them to accept your way as the best way. You have the right to provide information but it is up to them to choose. God is the judge. Therefore stand up to what you believe. When people confuse information with direction then it becomes a battle. Information like good news is just that. Now a person can choose what he does with that information. Everyone has to make their own choice and no one should be forced to make a choice. If a person chooses to suffer then it is their right to do so. However if they are vulnerable and need protection then the law provides safeguards for such situations. You are free when you can accept yourself as you are and not when you become perfect. There is no such thing as perfection in this fallen world.
