Eating Disorder Recovery

Day 6

Shame is an unavoidable part of the human experience. It is nauseating and paralyzing. It makes you want to hide. It can make you hate yourself.

Begin the guided prayer using the audio player.

 

Focus

Shame believes that someone has truly seen you and found you unlovely.  Our greatest fear is being known and rejected—even by ourselves. We drop our eyes and turn away in shame.
 
But our God does not turn away. He looks us full in the eyes. He knows every thought, deed and hidden thing and still delights in us. Impossible! Unimaginable! Unthinkable! 
 
Yet, it is the Gospel truth.

 

Journal

Take 2-3 minutes and journal what you imagined your day would look like if you believed today’s truth. No matter what, you are loved.
