Psalm 139:14 "I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
One of the aspects of being resilient is knowing your worth. I know that the Bible tells us that we are to be humbled and have a servants heart, but God wants us to know that we are worth more than anything else here on earth. As a matter fact the creation account tells us that we were made in His image. There is no better feeling than to know that we were made just like Him. Not only are we made just like Him who created us, but as Christians we have His Spirit dwelling inside of us. In 1 Corinthians 3:16 the Bible asks, "Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?"
There are numerous verses in the Bible stating how much God thinks of us. Jesus states in Luke 12:24, "And you are far more valuable to Him than any birds." So, what does knowing your worth have to do with being resilient and being able to bounce back in tough situations?
It's very important to know that when you find yourself in a challenging situation that you are capable to overcome it. You are made in His image and filled with His Spirit which gives you the ability to be resilient and Overcome! He made no mistake when designing you and making you; you are wonderfully made. So, when you feel as if there is a mountain to move in your life praise Him who made you and dwells inside of you. With His help you can move that mountain. You are capable!
Prayer: "Dear Lord, I know that when we feel down and facing challenges we tend to rely on our own strength. This can sometimes make us doubt our worth Lord. Lord help us to know that we were made wonderfully in Your image and that you dwell inside of us. With knowing this we can face any mountain in our lives and overcome it. Amen!"
