You Need To Know Your Worth

You are literally to die for.

You Need To Know Your Worth

We have all had that person, who we would have ran through fire for, that disappointed or hurt us. We have all had someone bring us down and made us feel like less of a person. Worthless. Let me just tell you....they are dead wrong! You are worth more than you could ever imagine.

First of all, you were created in the image of the almighty God and He made you with great intention. God does not make mistakes. You, my friend, are fearfully and wonderfully made, so please do not put yourself in a situation where someone makes you feel any different.

When someone treats you like an option, sometimes, you have to try not to care. No matter how much you do, take yourself out of the situation. Sometimes you mean almost nothing to someone who meant so much to you. That's okay. Some things are not meant to be, but that doesn't mean you do not mean the world to someone else. The second you have to start convincing someone of your worth, it's time to let go.

Don't go back to less just because you are too impatient to wait for more. Don't hold on because you think there won't ever be anybody else. There will be. There will always be someone else. You have to believe that you are worth more than being repeatedly hurt by someone who doesn't really care. Someone will see what you are really worth and treat you the way you deserve to be treated. God's timing, not yours.

Don't expect to see positive changes in your life, if you surround yourself with negative people. I tell myself this time and time again.

Know your value and what you have to offer. Never settle for anything less than you deserve. Always know the difference between what you're getting and what you deserve.

In this generation, girls feel pressured to be sexually active because they think it's the only way to keep their boyfriend.


LADIES, IF HE IS NOT WILLING TO WAIT FOR YOU, HE IS NOT WORTH YOUR TIME!

YOU ARE WORTH THE WAIT!

YOU ARE WORTH THE WAIT!

YOU ARE WORTH THE WAIT!

You are beautiful in God's eyes and you were created with a purpose. If you ever doubt your worth, step outside and take in the beautiful world the Lord has given you. He thinks you're worth it. He thinks you're worth sending His one and only Son to die for you. (you're literally to die for, people!!!) Your worth is endless. Never forget that. Never let anyone take it away from you.


"The only way you can fully accomplish his purpose for your life is to get to know yourself and the beautiful person you are....Seek the Lord and He will reveal more of who you were created to be....There is a mission for you in life: love and accept yourself for who you are. Be you; nobody can do it better!"

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
