Holy Confidence & Worth

For the past couple of months, I've been working hand-in-hand with Megan Anne Hannigan. She is fiercely in love with Jesus, and she is one of the busiest and driven people I've ever met. At the end of each of her blogs and inspirational Insta-stories she always says something along  the lines of, "You are loved. You are chosen. You are worthy. You are beautiful." She has been spreading this positive and Jesus-filled message to every follower, fan, hater, and viewer for the past 3 years. And this message is why people keep coming back for more. 

So, I got to thinking about this message and I believe that when we, not only as women, but as humans start to discover how loved we are, THAT is the moment we start looking outside of ourselves. THAT is the moment everything can change for us. We are not loved because of what we do. We are not chosen because we're better than the person next to us. We are not beautiful because of our bone structure.
Jesus is the one who makes us worthy. God created us beautiful in His image. He loved the world so much He sent Jesus to die on the cross for our sins, and Jesus rose from the dead. He calls us to a relationship with Him. When we start to see that we are totally unworthy, but we are chosen by the grace of Jesus anyways, we gain a kind of holy confidence that is unbreakable.
