Let’s talk about worthiness for a sec.

That okay with you? Let’s start with what it is not.

It’s not about mastering a make up routine or having perfect highlights. Those things photograph well, but they solve nothing.

It’s not about having the most current fashion or knowing the most up to date slang. If leggings are out of style, I don’t want to know. (Also, if I knew any catchy slang for out-of-style then I would have used it here, but I’ve got nothing and my life will go on.)

It’s not about losing 10 pounds or the size on your clothing tags. Muscles are awesome and I want you to be healthy, but I have laid awake and spent zero minutes worried about my friends’ muscle mass or bikini bodies.

So what is worthiness all about then?

Lean in, because I need you to know the secret to being worthy.

Ready?

BE YOU.

My goodness, friend. God doesn’t make mistakes. He didn’t make this big, beautiful world and then stop short at you.

You don’t have to be more of this or less of that to be loved. He loves you as you are.

Yep. Even like that.

So all those other things? Use them for good and have fun, but don’t for one second believe that they make you worthy.

Your people will love you as you are. Your God loves you as you are. It’s okay for you to love yourself as you are, too.
