《Walking With Jesus A Daily Devotional》Day Fifteen

Day Fifteen.
Verse: "'You are altogether beautiful, my darling; there is no flaw in you.'" Song of Songs 4:7
In this society, it's easy to feel bad about yourselves. On social media, tv, or in magazines they show a certain way we should look. The society bases our self worth on what size pants we wear. When God loves us, just the way we are.
I know I have struggled with my identity and self worth. When I was first diagnosed with depression and anxiety, I was put on a lot of strong medicines that make you gain weight. Nine years later I am still trying to lose the weight I gained. I had been losing weight till it was girl scout cookie season. Oh, thin mints, I love and hate you.
I have been feeling so down on myself for my weight when I shouldn't be. Because my self worth is not defined by what size I am. My self worth needs to be in God. God loves me and knows I am beautiful just the way I am.
YOU are beautiful, just the way you are. God loves YOU, just the way you are. God calls you: "flawless, beloved, beautiful, and His child." God created you, just the way you are.
You don't have to define your self worth by what social media says you are, what your friends say, or what your family says. You can place your identity in Christ and define your self worth by who God says you are.
Here is what God says you are:
You are beautiful. (Psalm 45:11)
You are unique. (Psalm 139:13)
You are loved. (Jeremiah 31:3)
You are special. (Ephesians 2:10)
You are created with a purpose. (Jeremiah 29:11)
You are cared for. (Ephesians 3:17-19)

You are lovely. (Daniel 12:3)
You are precious. ( 1 Corinthians 6:20)
You are strong. (Psalm 18:35)
You are important. (1 Peter 2:9)
You are forgiven. ( Psalm 103:12)
You are protected. (Psalm 121:3)
You are chosen. (John 15:16)
You are mine. (Isaiah 43:1)
God loves you so much. He wants to you give a new identity in Him. You don't have to base your worth on anything else. You can base your self worth through Him. He will help you. All you have to do, is go to Him. He will grab your hand and help you, every step.
Prayer:
Dear God,
I pray you help me place my self worth and identity in you and what you say about me. Help me to stop defining myself by what the world says and start defining myself by what you say. Your word is truth and I want to live by you and your word.
I thank you for all my many blessing and for Your Son.
In Jesus's name, I pray, Amen.

From there, only absurdities followed. Aristocratic conspiracies, mismatched identities, intercontinental wars... Hold on—did he just get called a prophet? In any case, as the world descends into chaos, Edris's carefree life may be just a bit further away than expected.
