Hope-Filled Sunday!
Happy Sunday! Here’s some encouragement for your week.
Have you ever felt like you don’t belong? Or worse, that you aren’t able to truly be yourself around some people? And that, instead, you have to change to meet some mold? Yet even when you attempt to do that, you still fall short of their standards?
If you take moment to think about it, I bet you will be able to think of at least one time that the above scenario happened to you. Sadly, it’s an all-too-common part of life.
Friend, let me remind you of something powerful: God has chosen YOU! He wants YOU, just as you are. You don't have to change who you are to fit into some mold of who someone else thinks you should be. Share on X
I don’t know about you, but I sure need that reminder, particularly when I’m going through trials. While it’s nice to have people by our side physically, they are only human. As a result, they will fail us or disappoint us on occasion. But our spirits can be bolstered by the fact that we are loved and chosen by God. How amazing is that? And He loves us just as we are. Nothing will change that—not even our flaws or chronic pain/illness.
So be yourself! It’s okay to be the you that God created you to be.
Lord, thank You for the reminder that I am chosen and loved unconditionally by You. Amen.
