When You Don't Feel Good Enough
What Do You Do When You Feel Like You Don't Measure Up?
There are times in all of our lives when we feel unworthy. Feelings of insecurity may arise because of comments from others. It may be things people have said behind our backs, that we later found out about. Or, it may be just our own insecurities deep inside. Regardless of where it comes from, everyone has times where their self-esteem seems lower than normal, and they feel like they just don't measure up to those around them.
Know Your Worth: You are SO Valued and Loved by God!
God loves you so much. He created you in His image. You are one of a kind. No two fingerprints are exactly alike. You have been intricately designed and fashioned into the person you are. You may not be perfect (newsflash: no one is!) but there is also no one out there who is exactly like you. You are unique. We all have our own talents and gifts, and you shouldn't compare yourself to another person and focus on the ways you seemingly come up short. What if that person did that with you? There would definitely be many things you're better at than they are. But that's okay, because they were created with a specific purpose in mind. And so were you!
