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 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 nuck in that my worth isn't something to be.

each 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. 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.
