In case you forgot, YOU are worthy of all—not some, but all—good things. It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking certain good things are only reserved for certain people. However, that’s not true. As I mentioned yesterday in “Song of the Hour,” God deems us worthy even when we don’t believe we are worthy. Plus, we are His children—meaning we are worthy of all good things.
Listen, never sell yourself short. If you’re doing it, STOP! Please, know that YOU, yes…YOU are worthy of ALL good things!♥️
The song of the hour is Anthony Brown’s, “Worth.” The song says (Lyrics: MusixMatch)—
You thought I was worth saving So You came and changed my life You thought I was worth keeping So You cleaned me up inside You thought I was to die for So You sacrificed Your life So I could be free, so I could be whole So I could tell everyone I know
You thought I was worth saving (so You came) So You came and changed my life You thought I was worth keeping (so You cleaned me up in-) So You cleaned me up inside (You thought I was to die for) You thought I was to die for (and I’m highly grateful) So You sacrificed Your life (yeah) So I could be free, so I could be whole (and I can tell everyone) So I could tell everyone I know (You thought I was worth it)
You thought I was worth saving (so You came) So You came and changed my life (You thought) You thought I was worth keeping (so You cleaned me up inside) So You cleaned me up inside (You thought I was to die for) You thought I was to die for (so You sacrificed) So You sacrificed Your life (so I could be free) So I could be free (so I could be whole) So I could be whole (so I could tell everyone) So I could tell everyone I know (oh)
Hallelujah! Glory (glory) to God who changed my life (to God who changed my life) And I will praise You (forever) I’ll worship You (forever) I’ll give You glory (forever) Because I am (because I am free) Because I am (because I am whole) And you can tell everyone (and I can tell everyone I know) Come on, lift it up, sing, “Halle-” (halle-)
Hallelujah (-lujah) Oh, glory (glory) to the God who changed my life (To the God who changed my life) Hey, hey, and I will praise You (forever) I’ll worship You (forever) I’ll give You glory (forever) I’ll give you all (forever) ‘Cause You deserve it, Lord (forever) You deserve it, Lord (forever)
I’ll praise You (forever), forever Because I am free Because I am whole And I will tell everyone I know
You thought I was worth saving So You came and changed my life You thought I was worth keeping So You cleaned me up inside
You thought I was to die for (ooh), oh You thought I was to die for (ah) You thought I, You thought I, You thought I was to die for You sacrificed Your life So I could be free Hallelujah!
God is so good, y’all. He deems us worthy even when we know we’re not worthy. He still sees our value and calls us His. How wonderful is that?! Amen🙏🏽♥️
Originally shared on February 7, 2022, then again last year on February 7, 2024.
Last year I wrote:
“I am most grateful to be alive. Grateful that I have another chance to love on my babies; another chance to experience something exciting and new (why am I hearing the Love Boat theme song—smile); another chance to accept or decline opportunities; another chance to make better decisions; another chance to live…to really live.”
Today, everything’s the same. EXACTLY the same!
However, I do want to take this moment to honor God for His amazing, unconditional love. When I tell you He’s been closer than ever! Correction… I guess I’m finally closer to Him.☺️ Y’all, He’s soooo good. So very good.🙏🏽
Also, I’m grateful for YOU and your continued support. Thank you so much for reading and always leaving encouraging words. They mean more to me than you know. I truly appreciate you!🙏🏽💕
“Just one word. You calm the storm that surrounds me. Just one word. The darkness has to retreat. … There’s nothing our God can’t do. There’s not a mountain that He can’t move.”
The last few months have been an emotional roller coaster ride for me. However, these last two weeks have really done a number on me! Just being honest and transparent. Imagine spending your entire life picturing a future world where kindness, peace, love, inclusion, equity, and goodwill towards all humanity was the norm to… whatever this is. Y’all, I don’t even know what to call it. It’s like going from envisioning somewhat of a utopian world—if you know me, then you know I wanted the world singing in “perfect harmony” (smile)—to seeing a dystopian society being created right before my eyes.
This isn’t a movie. It’s real. So very real. Those hurting aren’t fictional characters. They are real people. Real people (not only “DEI” hires) are losing or in fear of losing their jobs. Real people—not only criminals but children and mothers—are being detained and deported without an ounce of empathy. Marginalized people who have spent their lives overcoming discrimination are being treated like they’re “second–class citizens.” Whew! Talk about triggering!! Then, to make matters even worse, access to vital information is being denied and/or erased. Again, this isn’t a movie, “fake news,” or “woke news.” This is actually happening!
I digress… (long sigh)
I know for my own sanity, I must let go of things I cannot change… at the moment. I know that I can’t help others if I’m not physically, mentally, or emotionally strong enough and prepared to do so. But y’all, I am so serious right now, my heart is breaking.💔
I found this among inspirational messages I have saved. A much needed word for today.🙏🏽
Thanks for allowing me to share. I know God’s in control. I pray you have a wonderful Sunday.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
