Friday Feature ~ You

Today I felt led to pour encouragement into those hurting, lonely or sad.  To those beat up from life’s storms.

You feel lost in the shuffle.

Although God does not want us to fall into the trap of self-worship, that never diminishes the truth that He loves us.

That He loves and cares for you.

Today’s feature is about ~

You

It may not be your birthday,
But God is singing over you with pride.

To others you may not matter,
But you’re the apple of His eye.

You may have little left to give,
But what you offer Him is a pleasing sacrifice.

You may just want to quit,
But in you God’s potential still resides.

Others may have left you high and dry,
But God is ever on your side.

You may not feel that special,
But God knew you before He formed you inside.

You may not feel beautiful,
But all God makes is good and right.

Believe it or not, You matter.
To God.
