Self worth and the value of ones self are some often discussed topics. I feel like as teenagers we all will come to a time when we struggle with understanding or even acknowledging our own value and worth. This stage in life makes things quite complicated, you see when we ourselves don't know our worth, then we begin to question things. We question why God sees potential in us if we don't even see it. We question if were worthy of the things we want or if we have the strength to get their. We question why were even here in the first place. As you can see our outlook on our entire life starts with the outlook we have on ourselves. It can be hard to remember, but it is oh so necessary that even in the tough times we remember we are worth it and we aren't just valuable, were priceless creations of the one true king. No matter how many mistakes you make or how many times you mess up, you are loved and that will never change, so if the king of the universe can love all of us no matter the circumstances, we need to remember to do so as well. Times get rough, they can get really rough, and sometimes whats needed is to take a step back out of the situation and think about it in a new perspective. God has a plan, even when we can't see it, God is in control even when it feels like he's gone and God never leaves us, even when we feel completely alone. Know your value, your a creation of the king of kings, so hold your head high and find your strength not in yourself, but in him. On the days you question things, take a step back, remember who you are and count not the negatives in your life, but rather the blessings in which God has given you, I promise those out weigh the bad every time! To whomever is reading this, you are loved, you are perfect and there is nothing you can ever do to make God love you any less, so be grateful and remember not your value to this world but your value to your father in heaven and the wonderful plan he has for your life.
I feel there is something not talked about enough, everyone knows the feeling of failure. We all make mistakes, comes with being human, we all cope with that. How though do we cope when unplanned mistakes take place, I know your wondering what on earth I mean by this, most mistakes are unplanned… I am referring to the mistakes, the trials that occur even when the “rules” are followed, those that incur even when perhaps we have done everything right that is within in our power. This takes a different type of coping, paired with an even greater understanding and matched with yet a greater perspective. In order to cope and heal from these unplanned mistakes we need to evaluate what was within our control and what was genuinely not. Often times when things go wrong we immediately blame and criticize ourselves because let’s be real, that is much easier than accepting the unknown and accepting the true lack of control we had over the situation. It is facing this fact though that allows for
