thank you instead

      If there is one thing about you that you spend a lot of time disliking, why not try saying thank you instead (unless it’s the sort of thing that God dislikes, too)?

“You created my inmost being. You wove me together in my mother’s womb. Thank You. . . .” Psalm 139:13-14

“Self-rejection is the greatest enemy of the spiritual life because it contradicts the sacred voice that calls us the beloved.” Henri Nouwen
