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.
There have been several topics on my mind and heart the last week. So I pray right now that God present them here the way he wants them written and understood. One topic I'm sure I've touched on before is uncertainty, however I feel it is more relevant now than possibly ever. In this world the only certainty we havw perhaps is uncertainty, key words here; this world. As I've mulled this topic over in my mind a couple things have become clear: -uncertainty forces growth of faith. -community and relationships are of utmost importance. -In an uncertain world and constantly uncertain times, we as humans need Jesus, our rock and savior more then ever before. -Lastly (for now) we need to be building our boats to withstand rough waters every day even as the water is still so that when the inevitable tsunami hits, the storm of life won't wash us away. This analogy sums up most of the main points, together with those whom we are building relationships, we should be building...
