Why women feel unworthy

Sometimes, when you're able to take a step back and objectively observe your self-talk, you might be stunned by how cruel it is. Would you ever tell your friend that because they had a second cookie at lunch they're never going to find love, and will ultimately die alone in a house full of raccoons?

Would you say to your sibling that they must be a stupid, untalented nobody because they didn't get that promotion? Of course not! So why do we allow our inner demons to talk to us this way?

By welcoming it, the truth that God sent His Son to save us when we were undeserving sinners will fill us with awe of His great love for us. As a result, our lips may be filled with more gratitude, joyful praise, and encouragement—with less self-defense, complaints, and comparison. When I care for someone, I go all in. But him? Sometimes it really is as simple as two people just not being meant for one another.

And that is okay. So no matter the situation — find your center ground, your strength, your courage to stand on your own two feet and not allow anything less than what you know you deserve. Because this? The bare minimum? This is not what you deserve. You deserve to be adored and cared for in every way that your mind, body, and heart needs and longs for.

You deserve to be appreciated in every way you give your love and energy to someone else. You deserve to be taken on extravagant dates, to not feel guilty asking for what you want, to be unapologetically you. Why do we need to live life?
