Strong as a MotherShembull

Just take a moment and look out a window. Seriously, look! Peer, even briefly, at creation. Anything and everything that you just saw came from The Creator God. That same God, powerful and great, calls you valuable.

Do you know how valuable you are to God? Incredibly valuable, immeasurably precious. You are God’s artistry, designed and known by Him before your birth. Zephaniah tells us that He is rejoicing over you (read it in Zephaniah 3:17). In all of Heaven and Earth, His children are God’s most treasured creation (sound familiar?!)

The providence of God tells us that He has already seen our needs before we even knew to ask them. But get this, even more than that, it teaches us that He already provided for us in the place that we would need it, in the timing when we would have the need. So don’t waste your energy on worry. Instead, today, may you find strength and stability in knowing that you are valued, treasured, and loved by God.

A prayer for blessing

Heavenly Father, I lay every worry at Your feet. I step away from anxiety and toward Your love. Thank You for seeing me and for providing for me in advance. You are so good. Amen.
