By Hey guys!
So lately, I have been dealing with some behavioral issues. I did well for a while, but I’m just having a rough time. I don’t contribute it ALL to Autism, but I have issues with wanting to be accepted and sometimes it comes out as behavior problems.
I have really been struggling lately, but I know that with God’s help, everything will be fine. I just want to be accepted! The problem is, the more I try, the worse my behavior is and the more I drive people away.
This has caused me so much heartache and I hate it when I do it! I need to remember that God loves me so much and in His eyes I am loved, forgiven, worthy, justified, redeemed, a king’s kid, blessed, and the apple of His eye. I am enough! It doesn’t matter what other people say or think!
Remember, God loves you and so do I!
