Written by Michael Okuneye, a contemporary missionary and leadership trainer.

Learning to love ourselves is a journey that requires acceptance and embracing of who we are, just as God accepts and loves us. We must avoid comparing ourselves to others and hating ourselves for our weaknesses. Instead, we can work on changing and improving ourselves. The devil may try to convince us otherwise, but we must remember that God’s love for us is unconditional. We are new creations in Christ, forgiven and loved. By going back to God, we can find the strength to love ourselves and embrace our uniqueness.

For if a man belongs to Christ, he is a new person. The old life is gone. New life has begun. [2 Corinthians 5:17]
