Give thanks to Him... Who remembered us in our low estate

[MajestyJo]

My low self esteem goes back to my childhood. Part of it was due to the rules and regulations taught in my home, or the lack of teaching at home, because you can't know what you have never been taught.

I saw and heard things and they all seemed to go back to the church and I got a major resentment. I didn't know it was my choice or that I had a choice, a rule was a rule, and I had to obey. I grew up knowing that Jesus loved me. When I came into recovery, I saw how He had been there when I couldn't help myself. He didn't walk away, I did. That is why is was so important to find a new understanding of my God and my role and relationship with Him.
