Welcome to enjoying everyday life with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series pursuing what matters most.

Our personal relationship with God sets the tone for everything else in our life.

Seeking him should be our top priority, and the best way to do that is to spend time in his

word.

We get to know him by learning his word and then applying its principles to our daily lives.

Now, here's Joyce with today's teaching.

How many things are you letting make you cry yourself to sleep at night, or give you depression,

or discourage you, torment you and it's

nothing that can be fixed unless you come to terms of peace with yourself who cares who don't like

you if you like you I mean you spend more time with yourself than you ever will anybody else.

God likes you.

He not only loves you, he likes you.

And I think that's a lot.

God not only loves you, he likes you. He likes to hang with you.

He likes to talk with you. He likes to do everything that you do. If it's clean. I thought I better

throw that in there. Accept yourself.

Accept that you're not going to be strong in every single area.

Oh, let me tell you, it was such a relief to me when I finally gave myself permission to

have some weaknesses.

And I'm not talking about just doing sinful things, but I'm just talking about weaknesses.

Probably as long as I live, my mouth will get me in trouble occasionally.
