Finding Your Worth Through God: A Journey of PurposeIn a world where many people feel lost or uncertain about their purpose, one question looms large: How do we find our self-worth? Today, I want to share my journey of discovering my value through faith in God, and I hope it inspires you to seek your own purpose.
For a long time, I didn’t understand who I was or what I was worth. There was a period in my life when I felt completely stripped of my identity, especially during my first marriage, which was marked by abuse. I lacked confidence, self-esteem, and the sense that I had any purpose at all. I was merely a shell of the person I once was. It was a dark time, one that many can relate to in different forms.
But through this struggle, I slowly began to find myself again. The turning point came when I started reading my Bible and attending church. I met nice men and women who shown me love, they were good decent and kind people who, while not perfect, radiated goodness and love. They helped me rebuild my self-confidence and reminded me that I was worthy of love—a truth that had been obscured by the pain I experienced.
Let me pause here to emphasize something incredibly important: No matter what you’re going through—be it depression, unhappiness in a relationship, loneliness, grief, or even addiction—turn to God. He is always there, ready to help you find your purpose. His love for you is unconditional; unlike others who may disappoint you, God will never let you down. He is always in your corner, cheering you on because He knows your true worth—after all, He made you in His image.
As you embark on this journey of self-discovery and purpose, consider what you’re passionate about. Perhaps your calling lies in teaching, entrepreneurship, homemaking, healthcare, ministry, advocacy, or community service. Regardless of the path you choose, remember to do it with passion and dedication for the Lord. When you align your actions with your faith, you’ll find that your purpose shines through.
It’s important to note that you don’t need advanced degrees or accolades to have worth or a purpose. Your value comes from being uniquely created by God. Anyone can find meaning in their life through Him, regardless of their educational background or societal status.
So, how do you begin this journey of finding your purpose? Start by diving into the Word of God. Pray earnestly, asking Him to reveal your purpose to you. Reflect on what brings you joy and fulfillment. You might be surprised to discover that your passions are closely aligned with God’s plan for you.
And trust me on this: as you seek Him, you will see your purpose shine brightly before you.
In closing, I want to remind you that our journeys may differ, but we all share a fundamental need for love, value, and purpose. Embrace the imperfections of your humanity, and know that you are worthy. Surround yourself with supportive individuals, engage with your faith, and allow God to guide you toward the incredible life He has planned for you.
Thank you for stopping by here today. Let’s continue to encourage one another as we seek to find our worth through God!
Have a blessed day!
