As You Pray Your Holiness Grows Stronger
The #1 success secret for a sinner about holiness
What must come first in order to see ourself as holy? The secret to holiness lies in understanding how to create a foundation. It begins with a mindset of belief and faith the world lacks. It’s such a little secret that it’s easy to miss because our models may not have it either.
Should we have faith in people?
As children, our common tendency is to first observe and then trust others without question.
1. Parents who model good behavior help us believe they love and support us unconditionally.
2. Teachers who model good skill may be trusted and believed if what we are learning seems to advance us towards success.
3. Pastors and Priests may be trusted as we feel we’re getting the training that makes us feel good about God and ourself.
In each case, these mentors can help us or hurt our understanding of how to achieve holiness in life. Because of their placement as authority figures we are vulnerable and therefore susceptible to possible corruption. Belief in holiness and sinning
My lack of knowledge as a youth in the church traumatized me for years. A slight error in judgment early on led me on a life path of failure of heart believing I was a sinner condemned, not loved. I didn’t trust myself which led to my lack of trust of others. I didn’t understand why I lacked confidence and didn’t trust others until many many years later. Because of my desire for truth, I came to learn that Jesus, mature in the knowledge of the truth, modeled someone we could believe and learn from. Trusting Jesus’ teachings, we can achieve a place of maturity and holiness. Knowing God, Jesus taught us how to love God and love ourself to reach holiness.
The Church and our belief
We cannot trust ourselves when making decisions and choices without a proper understanding of self love. We must learn how to set goals with belief in ourself. Leaning on Jesus’ teachings, we learn how to love ourselves more and accept our failures, forgive ourself and keep going forward towards the whole life he knows will bring us success.
Loving ourselves correctly for holiness
God loves all of us; our strengths and weaknesses.
We have to love and have belief in ourself and take responsibility for our life.
Trusting ourself
We must come to that place of decision. We must seek out and find the truth about love, about God’s love for us, about love and forgivness of others and about holiness. With this understanding, we learn how to believe in God and love, nurture, encourage and build ourselves up in love to success.
Then as we create goals we can accomplish, we must believe they we deserve them. With this belief, we will absolutely trust our decisions and reach the success we desire. Speaking and talking ourself up, we support ourself and properly nurture ourself as we would others we love.
Speaking ourself up toward holiness
Daily speaking words of instruction and encouragement, we build for ourself a life that works. Using the models of others who teach us strategies for success, we set goals and learn how to dream about our future, trusting that our dreams will come true. We can only do this with a belief in God and in ourselves.
*We trust in God that the laws set in place will bring our dreams into reality.
*We trust in ourself that we can have what we want because we are worth it, deserve it and because this is what life is for.
*This glorifies God and pleases Him.
Satisfaction in ourself
Do you think we are born so we can condemn ourself? Have you noticed those of us who judge others and have made a habit of complaining about life. These attitudes and habits are a reflection of how we think about and treat ourself.
What we see is who we are.
The Secret to holiness
We will live without whole life or we can develop ourselves and succeed in life. The secret we miss when we go after success is the knowledge of how and why to love ourself. Let’s not let the ignorant teachings of some childhood authorities keep us in the dark by telling us we’re sinners hopeless without a savior. Jesus modeled the life we all are born for. Salvation makes sense when it’s about Jesus’ love and not our sin.
If we are failing in life and things are getting darker, this secret will save us. But how we see ourself is important. We are marvelous individuals with the power to create the life we were born to create. Let this slight error in judgment, believing that we are sinners, be the catalyst to get us to the next step, which is to learn how to love ourself and build ourself up.
Keep negative people at bay
When I was told that I put Jesus on the cross, I didn’t understand what I’d done. What I heard was not what was the truth. It took many many years before I corrected my belief and in my heart understood Jesus’ model of love. He chose the cross. He went of His own fruition. I didn’t put him there. What a terrible idea to plant in childrens’ heads. We have a chance to model godly behavior when we know how to love and nurture ourself. Jesus is one model of great love. There are hundreds of models.
Love yourself today and build yourself up in love to holiness.
Don’t let your misunderstandings taught by ignorant people keep you from the truth that we are unconditionally loved to live our true potential. We each have gifts we were born to give. We can co create in true prosperity and become global agents of change for our planet. Or we can live a more simple life modeling godly behavior in whatever way we desire.
Go right to the source for knowledge and mentorship. Build a foundation for success that withstands the world, inside or outside the authority places of your youth. As we each love ourself, holiness is present and dreams will absolutely become reality.
