God’s Opinion of You
Devotional Reading: … because you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you. Isaiah 43:4 NLT
Have you ever asked yourself that question? I often ask myself, “Who am I?” Things in this world are a mess! We can feel tempted to try to fit into the sinful lifestyles we see around us because we are searching for our identity. We might try to fit in by using money and various other means to relieve loneliness. We might choose to hang out with the wrong people who are a bad influence on us.
The thoughts that we allow into our minds are powerful. “ I am not good enough. I am not loved. I am not worthy enough.” These types of negative thoughts can constantly run in our minds. Friends, I want to tell you that you are loved, cherished, and valued by God. No matter what you do or say about yourself, you are loved by God.
You must learn to renew your mind daily from the worlds opinions of you. The kind of identity that you see in this world is not going to make you happy. Things in this world are temporary. They are not your true and eternal identity. Hence, the need to fill your thoughts with God’s opinion of you.
Prayer and Confession
I am what God says I am. I live in this truth.
