Value

My worth, my value and who I am is found in Jesus. It is not found in what I do right, or what I am doing that feels like a complete train wreck. It isn't found in the number of things that I am juggling or in my responses to life's situations.

The most important thing that makes me, me, is who I belong to. I get to be a daughter of the most high God! I get to have inside jokes with Jesus, and I get to dance my heart out for him whenever I want. Often I try to measure my worth y measuring my ability to make things flow seamlessly. I try to make everything work out so perfectly that it isn't a possible thing to achieve. Not only does this leave me feeling like a loser, but it misses the point! If I am a child of God, it is not through works that I am saved. God loves me,  he sent Jesus to rescue me and that is what saves me. If I make a few mistakes along the way that doesn't change God's love for me. Life isn't about doing stuff for God and  getting it all right. It's about loving God and other so much that your works flow out of those relationships.

The act doesn't matter.

The relationship does.
