Have you ever battled the lie that you don't matter or wondered if you are truly desired by anyone? Discover the life-changing truth that you were created on purpose and that your life has immense value.
The Context
In this deeply personal message, we revisit a pivotal moment from a 20-year-old journal entry detailing a severe battle with hopelessness and the transformative power of a divine appointment. We also study the call of the prophet Jeremiah and the intimate lyrics of Psalm 139 to uncover the biblical foundation of our self-worth.
The Core Message
God did not create you by accident; He knew you before you were formed in the womb. The enemy often attempts to steal our destiny by whispering lies of insignificance and rejection, but the truth is that God has a specific plan for your life that is far better than anything you can imagine. We explore the profound reality that you are fully known by God—every thought, action, and day of your life—and yet you are still deeply loved and pursued by Him.
This message establishes four vital pillars of your identity: you are known by God, fearfully and wonderfully made, chosen, and called. Whether you are struggling with dark thoughts or simply seeking a deeper sense of purpose, understanding that the Creator of the universe specifically "wanted" you changes how you view your past, present, and future. You are not a mistake; you are a masterpiece designed to point back to your Creator.
