Hurt distorts how you see...
If you've ever been hurt by those who were suppose to love you...you will struggle with believing those who have chosen to love you. Hurt distorts how you see the world because pain obscures your view. Distortion has convinced you that you don't measure up so you try to prove you're worthy enough to be loved. Fear then comes & does a work in your mind-wanting you to believe your worth is determined by others approval of you... this is a lie! Another person's approval has nothing to do with your value.
You're God's masterpiece- fearfully & wonderfully made (Eph 2:10, Ps139:14), He chose & loved you first (Jn 3:16) & you're an heir to the King (Rom 8:17). This is God's truth-it will never change nor is it open to debate or speculate. You must make a decision to believe you're loved, chosen & adopted (Eph 1:5, 1:11). Fear wants you to believe you're less than because someone didn't love you like they should have. You overcome this lie with God's truth-your identity is found in God's love & His love never lies or changes!
Until you have revelation of God's love, you will question if His love will fail you like human love did & you will push away those who truly do love you. Ask the Holy Spirit for help-He will give you revelation. Don't take the bait from fear, stand firm on God's truth-He won't forsake you (Deut 31:6). His love never fails or gives up on you (Ps 136:1). If someone didn't love you like they were suppose to-that doesn't make you unlovable that makes something wrong with them! Will you believe God & no longer let old hurt distort how you see? Where the Spirit of the Lord is...there is freedom-thank you Jesus! (2 Cor 3:17) LMM #godwillneverfailyou #christianinsightforlife
