If God gave you a blank check, what amount would you enter?

“It is an absolute human certainty that no one can know his beauty or perceive a sense of his worth until it has been reflected back to him in the mirror of another loving, caring human being.”― John Joseph Powell, The Secret of Staying in Love

Do we recognize our value? “Valuing oneself is an essential aspect of personal growth and well-being. It involves recognizing one’s worth, respecting oneself, and acknowledging one’s needs and desires.”

Do we give ourselves grace, compassion, unconditional love, and forgiveness? In many conversations, women are still trying to discover who they are. Most will find value and identity through careers, education, degrees, families, kids, and community work. However, as the labels are stripped, who are you? Most will pause, and some will sense emptiness.

Therefore, rediscover and recover who God has designed you to be. Change your negative beliefs about yourself and embrace who God has made you.

Psalms 139: 13-14: “For it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful is your work. That I know very well.” 

 I think back to a time that brought a smile and comfort. I took some coins, placed them in a handkerchief, and held them tight, remembering a touch from my grandmother putting them in my hand, giving me unconditional love. These coins reminded me of my value, which is unmeasurable. 

Your value is not on what you have done but on what God has done. Rest assured, God is continuing His work in you.
