You are worth it.

This morning, this crossed my mind or God put it in my heart, however you like to call it. 

One of the great things about God is that every day, always, He says that we are worth it, that we are worthy of His love and attention. 

Every day the world can bring us down. 

We work jobs where people don't think we are worth the promotion.  Whatever the reason, there is someone better or someone who just stands out more. 

We get in relationships that fail where on one end someone wasn't worth the time or effort. 

We can look in the mirror and see the image staring back and think - not worthy of a lot of things - attention, love, change. 

We're not worth it because we aren't smart enough. creative enough.  simple enough. funny enough.  dumb enough.  whatever the many things are that the world reminds us daily that we aren't or that we should be for someone or something...

But fantastically, remarkably, extraordinarily, God always says that we are worth it.  Every time. We are worth His love today.  Every day, we were worth God sending His son Jesus to the cross in hopes that we would find His great love and be together with Him. 

God finds us worth everything...more than everything...every day.  

I am [there is no adverb (it is an adverb, right?) big enough to go in front of how]  grateful this makes me.

Gosh, if people knew this, how could they not love God?!  every day, every one says we aren't worth it in some word or action...but our God every day says that we are totally worth it.  

Incredibly blessed this morning to know that although there are a lot of things that I am not today, there are a lot of ways that I will fail today and every day I'm on this earth after, but that today and each day, I can stand, I can wake up and carry on, in a space knowing that God thinks I am worth it all.  And that is what I will carry with me today. 

How can I fail when I have a God that tells me no matter what happens today or any day, you are worth it?

UNSTOPPABLE because of his unending love and acceptance.  I am worth it today and you are too.
