#283: I Love Bein' Me

Yep...that's another Bobism to add to the list and I can see Archangel raising two handfuls of slender fingers to indicate how many times she's heard me say that; especially lately! And when you think about it..."it" being the fact that we are to love the Lord wholeheartedly and our neighbor as ourselves as the two parts of the Greatest Commandments...you can't love your neighbor properly without loving yourself first!

Granted, you're a royal pain in the whahzoo most of the time, but if you've been regenerated in Christ, you've got His mind (1 Corinthians 2:15)...and His Spirit lives within you and is acting out part of your life (Galatians 2:20)...and Christ loves you as much as His Father loves Him (John 15:9), so you've got more than sufficient grace to work out your salvation into all the nooks and crannies of your Thomas's English Muffin of a life if you ASK Him to help you do it. Oh, yeah... you've also got Christ's perfect righteousness imputed to you because of Him, so quitcher damn whinging and get on with being in practice what you already are in position!
