Ever wondered why people say sorry for certain things when there is really is no need to apologize? Have you ever had someone judge you based on how you feel or the decisions you made in the past or even how you look. If God is not judging us why should we judge ourselves.
I’m not sorry and you shouldn’t be either for…
1. How you feel
Expressing how you truly feel (and I mean really feel about something) is a gift. When you tell someone about the way you feel on a certain subject you should never think twice about apologizing for expressing your personal perspective. if that is how you feel stand your ground. That is, unless it’s hurtful to the other person or intended to manipulate the situation. Letting people know where you’re at and how you feel is very important. If you don’t express your true feelings then they get swept under the carpet and you get sick and begin to feel that you are not important. it is crucial to say what you mean and mean what say.
Affirmations:But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one. Matthew 5:37
2. Changing your Environment and Eliminating Friends
changing your environment can be a big step and one should never have to apologize for wanting a better, safe, and peaceful environment, if the change allows you to be more productive and healthy do not apologize for it.
Breaking up with a friend is hard (sometimes much harder than ending a romantic relationship). But sometimes you have to let it go for your own reasons, if the friend is not adding value and instead holding you back, do not be ashamed to want better and to say good bye. ( Do it Politely)
Affirmations:Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. Proverb 13:20
3. Your Silly Past Mistakes
Yes, you might have made some bad choices, Yes,you accepted a job and now you are not happy with it. Yes, you cursed a lot, Yes you had to much to drink after you said you would not do it any more. Yes, you lied about something and you feel bad about it. chances are you are truly beating your own self about it right now. However no one can make you feel bad or say sorry for the silly things you did in middle school, high school, college, or even yesterday, unless it was illegal or damaging to the needs of someone else. The past is done is over, you will never get it back so beating yourself up about it will not change the past let go and move forward. (Nobody's Perfect)
Affirmation: Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do:forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,Philippians 3:13
4. Your Body or your Weight
If you’re apologizing for the way your body looks then stop it. You need to own your body – the shape, the size, the fact that it keeps you alive and it is yours. Saying sorry to someone because you’re too big, too small, too light, to dark, too...whatever is harmful to your heart, mind , body and soul... If someone can’t love you enough to know that perfection does not exist then that's their loss not yours. (love yourself at any size or shape)
Affirmations: Do you not know that your body's a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Your happiness is crucial to your health and your purpose in life do not spend another moment feeling bad about yourself, your choices, and for wanting more and better out of life.
BE. Positive. BE. Determined. BE.You.
