No one judges me... except for myself.

Is during my solo conversations with God that I feel profoundly loved.

I guess I never knew what being truly judged was until God blessed my path with one of the most amazing persons on earth and for this lovely reason, every now and then I get scared and don't feel "enough". God has tested me with this, and I know I am weak, but I won't stumble. When I talk about being judged, I am not talking about "the people", because the people has shown me their love in so many beautiful ways... people I barely know has given me their support and love. When I talk about being judged, I talk about me judging myself. One of the wisest persons I have ever met once told me: "unlike yourself, I don't put tags on people... Or to say it better, I didn´t put a tag on you".

What is it with us, humans (or some of us), that we try to strive for perfection, when all we need to do is to BE the best version of ourselves (whatever that means). All we need to do is to love ourselves and the people around us... That's it, really!  But for some reason, we (or at least I) always find reasons not to feel enough.

I haven't found the formula for self forgiveness or limitless self love, and perhaps I shouldn't, otherwise I may end up being an arrogant... Nevertheless, every time I close my eyes and feel like I am not enough, I pray to the Lord for strenght, faith, wisdom and love... Every time I feel I am about to crumble, I look up for Him and on a blink of an eye, He is right there with me, healing my wounds and reminding me that we are all imperfect and that He loves us all, just the way we are... Every time I wonder "how did I get so lucky?" He replies back on His best way, showing me that for Him we are all exceptional creatures, worth the world in every possible way. I know Im not the first one to say this, but I cannot just NOT share it....  when I need to feel safe, secure and strong, all I need to do is turn my eyes, heart and soul to Jesus. Every time I feel like "the world" is against me (when in fairness, that "world" seems to be only me), I raise my hands and heart to Him and, like magic, He grants me the peace my heart needs.

I know God is always next to me, waiting for me to take His hand, and when I take it, not only does He makes me feel like I am not alone, but He reminds me that  when it comes to fighting my own demons and all my personal battles, He is more than just a cheerleader... He is my Coach, my trainer, my strenght, my source of power and more. I shall win all the battles, even if in this terrenal life they look like failures, I know I am winning them all, because when it comes to God, absolutely everything is part of His perfect plan.

Let His love and mercy remind me every day that we are all worth the same... No matter our past, no matter what we have done, we are all worth the world to His eyes, and we deserve the same kind of love. Let me be thankful for the angels He has sent to this earth to remind me what I am worth, who help me be the best I can be and as happy as I can be. On this special day, I am thankful for him, my favorite angel on earth <3, who not only reminds me every day what I am worth, but also shows me a world of love, joy and above all, hope...

Psalm 23 "The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me..."
