i’m worthy and loved by You

Jesus talks about the danger of receiving affirmation from people in such a way that it adds something to you.  He says that affirmation and love from another human being should not be wanted or even received in such a way that it fills deficiency in us.  He says that when affirmation from people adds to our sense of self and security, it robs us of the ability to be satisfied in Him.  If we want to know why we aren’t satisfied in Jesus, it’s because we receive affirmation from men and we don’t seek it from God.

Jesus comes to the pharisees and basically says that they don’t want him because He doesn’t receive worship from men in such a way that it adds value to Him; that it speaks identity into Him.

And then He asks them this question:  

’How can you be satisfied with God when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?’

Here’s Jesus question: how can you possibly be satisfied by God when the attention of man adds to your value?  How can you possibly be satisfied by God when you don’t seek your affirmation and identity in the only God? Why are you treating men like they have the power to give you value through their feeble words when that is a power that belongs to God alone?    There is only one Person who can speak worth into you in such a way that it finally begins to fill that aching fear and insecurity.

That’s why I feel no hesitation in claiming that the pain of rejection we face in singleness is one of God’s sweetest gifts.  It provides a head start on being satisfied in God.  The key to satisfaction in Him is two-fold: not receiving your worth from the words of men, and seeking it from God.  The pain we experience in singleness occurs because the first condition has been met.  I am hurting because my singleness itself seems to have stolen from me the opportunity to get affirmation from men.  Now, the challenge is to let go of my desire to seek out and secure that affirmation, or cling and scrape up the scraps I might have gathered of human affirmation to try to make me feel less insecure or unwanted.  The challenge is to seek my affirmation from God.

And the reward is great: you will have deeper faith and deeper satisfaction in our Lord and Savior.

If you want affirmation you will have to trust God to provide.  Don’t be ashamed by your insecurity.  Don’t try to cover or conceal or fill it with positive thinking or encouragement from mortal men.  Let it drive you to cling to God as your only hope.  Let no one but God – not friends or yourself – convince you that you are worthy and loved.  Let His word be the only balm to the broken soul.

Why does this tumblr exist? I’m afraid of forgetting. I’m scared to death that our story’s intricacies and details and beauties will fade and blur and blend into a green-grey smoothie of us.

Thus, this. Here where we can tell our story together, of the times we share and the times we have apart. Of our struggles and lessons in the journey toward and with each other. Of the reactions we have to the random small things, of the moments we remember, of the days and nights we adventure.

Our story is just that: ours. And baby, tesoro, I want to piece it together, together. Because I’ve always loved hearing how both sides come together—how two thoughts, two experiences, two hearts combine to paint a whole that is greater and fuller than each.

Because, of all the times I’ve told our story, my favorite was the first time we told it together.
