Devotional: Day 2391

Greetings,

Many of us grew up struggling with low self-esteem. We thought we were too short, too tall, too big or too skinny, not beautiful enough—or anything but handsome. God wants us to know how much He loves us. If we never realize how valuable we are, later in life as adults when we encounter a difficult situation, we can often revert back to deep and painful emotions such as: fear, anger, resentment, rejection or feelings of being unworthy.

These emotions cause a lot of people to feel overwhelmed by life. Because of what they are facing, they feel that our Heavenly Father must not love them. That’s how Gideon must have felt in Judges 6:13 (NKJV), when he said, “O my Lord, IF the LORD is with us, WHY then has all this happened to us?”

One of the most liberating revelations of my life was when I realized that God’s love does not depend upon who we are, but upon who He is! I want you to listen to the story behind the amazing song that follows and let it bless you!

Jesus, You proved once and forever how much I am worth by laying Your life down for me. That is all the evidence I need to show that I matter to You and that my life is important. Help me stop listening to the lies the enemy whispers about how I’m not good enough, I’m not forgiven or that I’m not loved. The scars in your hands tell me the truth.

Today, I’m worshiping with Big Daddy Weave and “Redeemed.”
