A prayer to remind you of your worth by Julie Sunny. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are

wonderful. I know that full well. Psalm 13914.

For years I had secretly thought that if I accomplished enough, I'd be accepted and worthy. Each day I spent trying to please others by earning enough

money, making a name for myself, and providing for every need that crossed my path. I believed I should be the greatest mom, the perfect wife, the best friend, the hardest

worker, the one who had all the answers and cared enough to respond to everyone's requests.

I bought into the lie that success equals validation.

It was beginning to strangle me. Then the thoughts snuck in that my worth isn't something to be found or earned, but it's innate because of who God created me to be.

Each of us is created in the image of God, remarkably and wonderfully made. We don't need to prove

ourselves or earn our worth. As today's key verse reminds us, God's works are wonderful. We already have worth in our

Creator and Redeemer. That realization alone should give us peace as we live out who we freely are in Christ.

Who are you trying to prove your worth to? Today, embrace the truth that in Christ you are already worthy.

Let's pray.

Dear Lord, thank you for fearfully and wonderfully creating each of us.

Thank you for giving us worth in your eyes.

Help us live as the one you uniquely intended us to be. Help us abide instead of strive,

living peacefully and joyfully as heirs to your kingdom and co-ears with Christ. In Jesus name, Amen. Oh, you're going to be here. You're going to do.
