It is Time to Respect Yourself!

To my sisters in Christ:

It is time to respect yourself. Do you know who you are? You are a beloved daughter of the most high God. You are worthy. Do you believe that?

• Do you respect yourself enough to not be dating someone just for the sake of having a boyfriend?
• Do you respect yourself enough to not wear skin-tight clothing for attention?
• Do you respect yourself enough to not tolerate abuse, be it sexual, emotional, verbal, mental, or physical?
• Do you respect yourself enough to take care of yourself spiritually?
• Do you respect yourself enough to be mindful of the content that you expose yourself to every day, through media of all kinds?
• Do you respect yourself enough to take care of yourself?
• Do you respect yourself enough to distance yourself from people who are ruining your relationship with Christ?
• Do you respect yourself enough to surrender all your worries to Jesus?
• Do you respect yourself enough to listen to the opinions of others, but ultimately decide with God what you should do?
• Do you respect yourself enough to not go with the flow just because "everyone else is doing it"?
• Do you respect yourself enough to laugh freely without worrying about making a scene?
• Do you respect yourself enough to stop beating yourself up for things that truly are not your fault?
• Do you respect yourself enough to have your own sense of individual tasteful fashion?
• Do you respect yourself enough to take your own path in life because you know it is right for you?

Do you respect yourself? It is time.

Your sister in Christ,

Stephanie
