Unworthy

Pinned Image

More often than not I feel less than worthy of the blessings God has placed in my life- of the fact that he wants to use me.

Recently and quite frequently I've been going through spiritual warfare. Seriously. It's like modern warfare two going on in my brain. I think the worst part though, is that I didn't even realize it. I kept slipping farther, thinking I was doing more than okay in my walk with God.

It's funny how one simple moment can reveal to you the lies you have been believing. One moment I'm holding my precious niece, and the next I'm driving home bawling my eyes out, realizing that I need God the way my baby niece needs her mother to survive, and for her unfailing love.

I was thinking I needed a man to come in and sweep me off my feet, but God created the world and my life- I'm sure he knows just a little bit better as to what I need.

I've been taking advantage of the fact that God's always with me. But I continue to hear him say,

"Never will I leave you; Never will I forsake you." Hebrews 13:5

And maybe I'm not worthy to have the Lord God working in my life and using me, but he uses the weak to lead the strong.

I believe he wants to use anyone who is willing to be used, so long as they get back up every time they fall and continue to run the race.

So, that's what I intend to do.

How about yourself?
Is there something stopping you from moving forward?

"He is the one who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie."

Love, Bailey.
