Hey Guys!
It’s been some time, but any time is
better than never turning up, right?
So I kept thinking I have never given
an intro thought to why I chose the title for my blog, well it’s
because I lost a major chunk in life thinking I wasn’t worth and I didn’t
matter and it took a good deal of time to prove myself wrong and be confident. Hence
the name “You Matter”
If you are that person who thinks that
you don’t matter, this for you, by the way let me begin with a verse that
really inspired me:-
Eph 2:10 (NLT) For we are
God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the
good things he planned for us long ago.
The fear of being nothing can sometimes
become so true that it often becomes a fulfilled prophecy, like when it's
time to go for a job interview your fear kicks in and you think, what if I’m
not going to impress them?, what if I look stupid? what if they ask me
questions I can't answer? And eventually like it or not you end up being all
that. The fear of insignificance creates the very dreaded result that you wanted
to avoid all your life.
Stop!!!!!!
You're disagreeing with God! You're
questioning His judgment, hey you are even “doubting his taste”, he created you
and he believes in the abilities of his masterpieces, not one of us are
insignificant, who are we to think otherwise?.
His Word says “He can't stop thinking
about you.” If you could count His thoughts of you, 'they would be more in
number than the [grains of] sand' (Psalms 139:18 NKJV).
Why does God love you so much? Sometimes,
you need to relate the verse from Ephesians like an artist looks at his
painting or a sculptor looks at his sculpture. God is your artist, he is your
sculptor 'We are God's masterpiece. He has created us a new in Christ Jesus, so
that we can do the good things He planned for us long ago.'
So when you get up each morning, look in the mirror,
and tell yourself, 'I matter, because God loves me!’. So go out and live your
life, know that you are loved and as always – “You Matter”!
