Know Your Worth...

Have you ever just sat back and wondered what Jesus was thinking, when He walked around our sin filled world? How disappointed He was with our actions?

I think about it a lot...today more than others...



I feel outraged!! I get on social media and I see the new trend to change ourselves. Yes, I am talking about this crap- "Kylie Jenner Challenge".


REALLY?! 

It angers me that all these young people don't know their worth. They feel like they aren't enough and that they need to change.

I get outraged.
I get angry. 
I get disappointed.

...Who's to blame?


I know I am. I have lacked in telling someone their worth. 
Many days I am upset, sad, angry, and more. I deal with this by shutting down and keeping it to myself. People notice. What light am I shining on those days?
None. (Simple. No glory is brought to God, when we walk around sulking.)
I know plenty of times I have missed opportunities to tell someone their worth.
I missed out on telling them:
You're Beautiful...
You Matter...
You're Loved...
You Are Worth So Much More...
I missed these opportunities. So as I sit here seeing all these young people desperately trying the next thing to "fit in", I realize I am to blame. 
You are to blame.
Us as Christians are to blame.



It's time we take every chance we can to lift someone up. Even on your worst day, lifting up someone else can lift you up.

Take a minute and read over what God thinks about you...


  • “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has gone, the new has come.” 2 Cor. 5:17
  • “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.” Matthew 5:14
  • “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” 1 Peter 2:9
  • “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
  • “Now if we are children, then we are heirs- heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. If indeed we share in His sufferings in order that we may also share with His glory.” Romans 8:17
  • "No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you." John 15:15
  • "Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?" 1 Cor. 3:16
  • "She is worth far more than rubies." Proverbs 31:10
God tells us over and over again what we mean to Him. But sometimes we forget and we need that little reminder.



Here's your reminder!!! lol.


I challenge you right now to go and tell someone of their worth. Tell them what they mean to God and what they mean to you. 

Plant that seed and let's see this world start to change.....one thin lip at a time.
