How God’s Wild Love for You Makes You Worthy

How many of us wake up some mornings and already dread getting up? Or go through the day feeling like we’ll never measure up, that what we do is not good enough, and even wonder who could possibly love us? Then let me suggest the book, Worth Living, by Mary DeMuth, to be your next read.

How God’s Wild Love Helps Us Overcome Feelings of Worthlessness

All women yearn to wake up each morning knowing that, no matter what their circumstances, they can feel joy because they are secure in God’s love for them and their unique place in the world.

With deep compassion, Mary DeMuth dares women to believe that the God who starts a good work in them is faithful to bring it to glorious completion. That the God who redeems them also loves them–right now and always–with a beautiful love. That they are daughters of the King, always welcomed in his presence. She helps women discover a future where they know they are wildly loved, they feel strong and secure, and they are destined to have a great impact on the world around them.

For those of us who grew up going to church as a child, or have attended many years now on our own as adults, we hear all the time “Jesus loves you”.

And it’s true, right?

Of course it is. Except for when that little voice in our head whispers “But maybe He doesn’t”.

It may happen only once in a while on an especially rough day, or maybe it happens all the time, depending on your current situation. And you’d probably never admit that thought to anyone, because, hey, if anyone said it to you, you’d jump all over them (in love) to tell them how wrong they are! So what do you do?

Then you read a book, Worth Living: How God’s Wild Love for You Makes You Worthy. And the author tells her story about how a traumatic childhood would lead her to grow up starting to believe the lies she was told about herself. How she was worthless, no one would love her, even God would turn away. She starts to turn these thoughts and feelings around, and showed herself and now her readers, that we are true daughters of the King!

That not only will He love us and be there for us no matter what we’ve done, but we’re to love others too. And help them learn their worth for themselves. What great things could we do if we all woke up every morning, confident in the thought that God loves us?

Be sure to check out Worth Living either for yourself or if someone you know is struggling with worthiness. It’s available on Amazon.
