Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Ephesians 5:1–2 NIV

Becoming a Better Me

Father,

I’m amazed by your love. I mean really amazed. You see all the parts of me—the good, the bad, the really ugly—and still you love me. You watch as I ride the waves of life, sometimes honoring you and obeying your Word—sometimes not. There are ups and downs, successes and failures, and still you love me. You always love me. Thank you for your grace. Thank you for your forgiveness. Thank you for second, third, and fiftieth chances to follow and obey you. I love you for all that.

But Father, in the journey to be the me you’ve made me to be, I have a request . . . help me to become that “better” me. When I lose my temper or sink into selfishness, gossip, judgment . . . failure . . . I beat myself up. I believe I am a disappointment to you (and certainly to myself). Even though I know you forgive me and love me still, I can’t seem to get past my own sin. That lack of self-forgiveness holds me back from becoming a better me. Father, help me forgive myself and move on, because that’s what you want for me. Help me to love myself, as you do . . . in fact . . . because you do.
