b'You didn\\u2019t make the team. That singing part you were trying out for? The girl who always gets the main part got it again. No one invited you to that party. Your parents are disappointed with your grades yet again.\\nLife is full of pressure to perform and be \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153enough.\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d And, as much as you try to drown out the voice that whispers, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153You are not enough,\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d it still seeps through at times.\\nAs Christians, how do we combat this voice that lies to us? We go to the truth\\u2014the Word of God. What does God say about our worth? He says we are His \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153chosen people\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (1 Peter 2:9). He \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153chose us\\u2026before the creation of the world\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (Ephesians 1:4). The same God who intricately knit us together in our mother\\u2019s womb still knows the number of hairs on our heads (Psalm 139:13; Matthew 10:29-31).\\nSince we have put our trust in Jesus Christ, we are \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153children of God\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (John 1:12; 1 John 3:1). We were created in \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153the image of God,\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d and we are being \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153conformed to the image of his Son\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (Genesis 1:27; Romans 8:29). We are more than enough because we are God\\u2019s creations; we are His treasures.\\nIn Christ, we don\\u2019t need to perform because we are loved and saved by Him, secure by the Holy Spirit dwelling in us (Romans 8:9-11, 38-39; Ephesians 2:8-10). So, when that voice whispers, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153You\\u2019re just not enough,\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d shout back, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153In Christ, I\\u2019m MORE than enough!\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d \\u2022 Savannah Coleman\\n\\u2022 When doubts about your worth fill your mind, where do you turn? Do you dwell on these thoughts until you feel like you are drowning in self-pity? Do you sweep them under the rug and use a distraction so you don\\u2019t have to face your thoughts? Turn to Jesus. He alone can uncover the lies and reveal where your true worth is found. \\nOnce you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 1 Peter 2:10 (NIV)\\n\\xa0\\nRead Verses:\\nPsalm 68:17-20; John 16:33'
