There is a season in my life that felt desperate. I felt like I had done it all and the emotional turmoil I felt was in was not moving even an inch. I had gone for a few therapy sessions, talked to my mentors, read a couple of good books and blogs, caught up on several TedX Talks and even tried some affirmations and self care routines… Nothing was budging.
Ever been there? You’ve attended every seminar and webinar you know, then poured your heart out in therapy, even taken the hyped solitude retreats – and yet, life still feels… the same? It’s as if you’re carrying a weight you can’t shake off!
My turning point came during a prayer retreat, a time of quiet reflection. I realized I’d been so focused on fixing myself, on finding my worth within, that I’d lost sight of the only One who is worthy, the one who truly defines me. I’d been looking everywhere but at Jesus.
Here’s what I learned, the truths that finally started to bring deeper healing:
- He is your worth: Until you realize that He is your worth, and only He makes you worthy, you will never overcome your insecurities. Until you understand your value comes from Him, and Him alone, those deep self-worth struggles will never truly end.
- His eyes see true beauty: If you still don’t feel beautiful, no one and nothing out there can make you realize how beautiful you are… No compliment, no affirmation, can make you feel deeply beautiful until you start to see yourself through His loving gaze.
- Only His love can truly fix you: If you still feel broken after all the effort you’ve put in, it is simply because no one can really fix you. All the effort in the world won’t mend your brokenness; only His unconditional, reliable and eternal love can.
It was when I started to truly gaze upon Him, to understand how deeply He loved and wanted me, that things began to shift. No amount of self-work, self-awareness, or empowerment could ever fill that God-shaped hole in my heart.
