You need God most when you feel like you are not enough
We live in a world where comparisons and countless standards are made. These standards make us feel like we are not enough. For some reason, we chase it to feel like we belong. However, the more we do it, the longer we feel burdened inside. We are running on an endless path where the finish line is beyond the horizon. It remains unseen and constantly changing. That is because this world continually changes. The standards also change. But it is not every time that we can keep with it. Worse, the more we do it, the more we feel like we are useless. We keep going where everyone is going, not knowing it is already harming us. It affects how we see and value ourselves.
You need to realize that you are enough. Race does not belong to everyone. It only belongs to those who want to own it. The good news is that you have the choice to be one with it or to create a path of your choice. To feel like you don’t belong is totally fine. Although we desire it because it is in our nature as humans. But you don’t need to go where everyone is going.
Remember, you are designed to be you and not to be them. You are you and need to live as yourself and not somebody else. So do not worry, for you will not be alone on that journey. God will be with you. He will reveal to you the things that He has been preparing for. So do not be afraid to stand out.
Do not be afraid to be different. You are not the least. You just feel like you are one because everyone else is doing the same thing. It is not that you are not enough. You just have to go through a process to grow. Remember that other people also have their own fight. The same for you. You have to build yourself. See yourself as your own identity. Set your standards to how God wanted you to grow.
He will teach you how to value yourself more and more. It is not because God loves you less when you feel so left out. Instead, He wants you to have something different from your heart’s desires. Because He knows what you need even before your heart knows what you want. So believe in Him, for He knows what is best for you.
When you feel like you are one of the least, that will be a perfect time for you to seek God. He does not wait for you to become excellent and sinless. Because no matter how countless your mistakes are, He will still love you. No one can understand you better than He can. He knows you even before you desire anything else in your life. Yearn for His presence every day. Let your heart hunger for more of Him each day. Bathe in His words and cleanse yourself in His presence. He will help you overcome the feeling of the least and reveal to you that you can be more as you walk with Him. The journey will not always be easy, but remember that growth needs a process, and learning takes effort.
