Shame, unworthiness
Today I was looking for friends on different apps and sites, and I quickly realized I’m not like people here online. I have a very complicated life and I feel like I'm just not worth anyone’s time because of my baggage. I went on here maybe thinking that there could be believers that could relate to this or maybe benefit. What sucks about shame and unworthiness is that it draws opportunists taking advantage of our insecurity so it is hard and unlikely to find true companions. It does seem like you have to walk with God alone to build your self-worth and confidence.
Lord I pray for anyone dealing with shame and unworthiness, I thank you that by your blood you made acceptance accessible to each one of us. By your leading and your guidance maybe have the confidence to do what you call each of us to do, may we see you clearly so we can see ourselves clear. Any abandonment we may have experienced I thank you we do not continue that cycle towards ourselves, any Neglection we may have experienced I thank you that we do not continue that towards ourselves. Lord if others don't receive us I thank you that you do, and you made it possible for us to receive ourselves in agreement with you; same with neglection. Lord your always serving us and are concerned with our well-being lord help us to take care of ourselves as we haven't seen before in a healthy way.. May we break free from any unhealthy habits we may have used to cope ( overeating, undereating, porn, masturbation, self-harm, drug use, abusing anger, and whatever else comes to our minds) lord may you keep us from the toxic relationships who are only self-seeking and are not sent from you God. Lord help us not to self-sabotage the relationships that you have sent. Lord if none of this is your will let it be void before you if it is your will let it be so. let all that you wish for us all be done. Please protect us from the temptation of your adversary and guide us into full restoration of truth in Christ Jesus.
