We Make God In Our Image

The other false solution is Religious Performance.
When we don’t like ourselves, some get into religious practices to appease a God whom they believe also doesn’t like them. Why?
Because life is a mirror.
Because we make God in our image and likeness.
Because we project our self-hatred on God.
For years, I used to be like this. I prayed, read the Bible, and did my religious work because I wanted the approval of an angry God.
No more.
I do all these because He loved me first. (1 John 1:14)
So how do you start liking yourself a lot?
