a letter to my past self

 

Dear sweet one,

You are so loved, you don’t feel it, you don’t know it, but you are. I know you’re rolling your eyes right now but trust me, your family loves you, Jesus loves you. You’re going to meet people that are going to change your life forever. The friends you prayed for are coming. There are going to be people that come into your life that leave you feeling empty and heart broken, but it will get better. Thats life, sweet baby. People are going to come into your life that will cherish and love you. They will love you much that you won’t feel like you deserve it. You’re going to find yourself in a state of pure bliss, driving through the North Georgia mountains with your best friends, the Lumineers blaring from the speakers. God has so much in store for you. Stop running from him. Stop trying to find your worth in other peoples opinions of you. God says you’re beautifully made in his image. He’s the creator of the universe so you should listen to him. You are worth so much more than you think. You are a child of God and that makes you priceless. If you only knew where you would be a couple years from now, you wouldn’t be so hard on yourself. Give yourself room to grow. People are going to walk into your life and stay and make it a million times better. The smiles and laughs are coming. Hold on and trust the lord

 

    Life is going be hard sometimes, it will get better. Here are some other wise words I would like to give you.

 

  • Listen to your mom, she knows more than you and she only wants the best for you.
  • Love on your sister a little more.
  • Soak up your brothers baby stages, they will fly by.
  • It’s okay if someone doesn’t like you.
  • Spend more time in the word.
  • Soak up every second you have with your friends.
  • Tell your dad you love him more
  • You’ll fall in love and get married some day, chill out.
  • Trust God

 

I love you.
