Self-worth is such a hard commodity to come by. Some spend years of their lives searching for it. Seeing yourself as worthy of love, as someone good enough, as someone who is amazing, is easier said than done. It takes a lot of courage, a lot of reflection, and a lot of self-care.
One of the best ways in truly loving yourself is realizing that how you love yourself doesn’t stem from how people love you. You teach people how to love you by showing them how you love yourself, not the other way around. Your self-worth isn’t equivalent to their view of you. The moment you figure that out, you give yourself the best chance in reaching your full potential.
Everyone has a unique sense of worth. It is innate and can never be taken away from you. The moment you have been set on this earth, He has already blessed you with an abundant amount of worthiness and grace.
Sometimes these things can be forgotten. When life takes a toll, it can sometimes feel like your worth as a person lessens as well. You must make sure you wake yourself up and remember that you have a God given right as a person to feel amazing about yourself and that sense of love and appreciation for yourself can only be hidden but not taken. You have to do the best you can to see yourself the way you were made, which is loved. You are made loved.
