You Are More



Hi guys! I want to share a few words with you today. Sometimes less is more, right?! ;)


You are more than where you have been. You are more than the mistakes of your past. You are more than the belittled expectations placed on you. You are more than how the world defines you. You are more than the doubts and fears that hold you bondage. You are more than what people think and say of you. Everything that seeks to define who you are, everything that tries to tell you what you’re worth, is nothing compared to the way your Creator defines you. You are more. -Alessandra Ferguson

God’s Word says of you in 1 Peter 2:9 “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” 

“What manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us because it did not know Him.” 1 John 3:1 

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 

“And you, being dead to your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.” Colossians 2:13-14

Dear friend, whenever you feel inadequate and the world hollers at you that you’re not good enough, please remember these words okay? Rest in the truth of who God says you are. Our identity is found only in Christ, so don’t let this world bring you down. Through it all, remember the unconditional love Jesus has for you. :) 




Have a meaningful day! xoxo

Your friend,

Delali.
