Unconditional love…something my brain has never really registered. No one can love me unconditionally. I’m not worthy of such love.
Love in general is hard for me to comprehend. Many times it’s hard for me to remember that I’m loved…by my family, my friends, and especially God. It is so easy for me to let a little whisper from the devil become a reality to me. It usually goes something like this “you’re not good enough…you’ll never succeed…God won’t love you unless you do this…everyone else is better than you…people don’t really like you they’re just being nice.” Guess what…that’s not TRUTH. Why is it so much easier at times to believe these lies than the Truth? I will never be certain of that answer, but this week at training camp the Truth became more real to me than ever before and for the first time in my life I experienced true Freedom.
I am a child of God. I am a beautiful daughter of God. I am worthy. The Lord knit me together in my mother’s womb. Before I was ever created, He knew me and loved me. His love for me is unconditional and unfathomable. I am His beloved. I am His bride. I am His princess. He has a special purpose for my life. His love for me burns like an all consuming fire. He delights in my voice. He wants to deliver me from anything in my past. He gives me self worth. His love is never failing and never ending. He will never stop loving me and wanting a relationship with me. He wants me to experience His love. He wants me to share His love with others. I am a part of His beautiful creation. I am just who He created me to be.
Those are my declarations of who I am. It may take me declaring them over myself every day for it to finally sink it, but that is the Truth. And the beautiful thing about it is it’s not just MY Truth. It is every single human being’s Truth. If you have ever felt ugly or not good enough or unloved or oppressed, the Truth will set you free. You are beautiful and loved and created for a special purpose. Let God show you His love because He really wants to. He wants to love you and spend time with you and romance you. He wants to define who you are. If you ever struggle with doubts of self worth, I encourage you to take these declarations (or write some of your own) of Truth and declare them over yourself everyday or every time you struggle. You may not feel better instantly, but the Truth will bring healing and will set you free.
Thank you Lord for your unconditional love for every one of your children. I pray that You would bring healing to every one of Your children that has ever felt unloved and unworthy. I pray that You would give them Freedom in Your Name. I pray that Your love would become real to them and would be all they need. I pray that You would pursue them and romance them showing them how much You love them each and every day. I pray that You would open their eyes to Your love – that even a glimpse would be all they need. Thank you for loving us. In Jesus Name, Amen.
