Feeling small? Like you don’t measure up? Friend, you are God’s beloved.

God doesn’t think little of you. You are God’s beloved. Forever and always.

Even when you are thinking little of yourself. Or others seem to think little of you.

Sometimes you’ll go through seasons when you feel like a ball of vulnerability and failure. You’re unlovable. You’re too much. You’re not enough. You’ll never measure up.

You know what? If anyone has reasons to burn bridges and shut down relationships, God does – who knows our hearts, minds, and actions. He created us and we fail every single day. We choose to do and say things that are clearly not of Him. But He doesn’t. He chooses a relationship with you and me every time. Because we matter so much to Him.

He knows exactly who you are, where you are, and what you need. You will always be enough for Him – His beloved child. You are always welcome at his home.

Here are just a couple reminders from John about this idea:

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!

1 John 3:1a (NIV)

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.

John 15:9 (NIV)

Of course, we’re gifted with the great responsibility and privilege of continuing to grow. As one of my favorite ministers likes to say, “God loves you too much to let you stay the way you are.”

(More about that another time.)

We’ve been talking a lot about this truth in my household, so credit for this reminder goes to my husband. (Hey babe!)
