There is no reason for you to feel like you are not good enough when things aren’t going your way. You can’t always be in control of every outcome and there is no reason for you to put yourself down.
Some days we just don’t feel good enough for much of anything. It hurts when we struggle with feelings that we are not sufficient, we are incompetent or just generally worthless. This past year has certainly left me feeling a bit low on the totem pole.
I know you are with me. We all have experienced a not so successful review at work or a failed personal project. Every now and then we have felt a bit insignificant when we didn’t get chosen for a team or we don’t seem to fit in. All of us has had to admit defeat due to a failed relationship at some point in life.
Cheer up!
Here are 3 reasons you should never feel like you are not good enough.
You are one of a kind!
There is nobody else out there that is anything like you. Not a single human being on the face of this planet in all the thousands of years before or after this very moment in time is just like you. From your hair, to your eyes, to your your one of a kind personality, you are incredibly and wonderfully made.
‘But now, O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand’
Isiah 64:8
Your gifts are unique and specific to you!
You have been created with gifts that allow you to perform a specific purpose in this life. Some of us become restless trying to determine what that purpose is and how to accomplish the task God has designed us to complete. We then make our own plans without considering the path our Lord and Savior has planned for us. The specifics are detailed on God’s calendar, not ours. We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
‘For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.’
Ephesians 2:10
You are loved by the one and only God Himself!
Think about that! How can you feel worthless when the Divine Creator Himself loves you so passionately? It’s humbling to know that a King who sits on high, came down to earth to suffer and die for our salvation. He is desperate to make sure nothing can separate us from His unconditional love.
‘For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels or demons, neither the present or the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, not anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ‘
Romans 8:38-39
Are you having a rough morning or settling down after a horrible day? Are you left feeling unaccomplished and worthless? Please do not go a minute longer thinking that you are not good enough.
You are unique and wonderfully created to accomplish specific works in the name of Jesus Christ for the Heavenly Father who loves you more than earthly words can describe.
Your in Christ until we meet again!
