Waking up to Worth



There is something to be said about the journey to self-worth. Every woman must travel there is she wants to become whole. Unfortunately there are many things that can get in the way. Through the years of singleness she searches, hiding behind the makeup, the clothes, and the guys that she can attract. Or maybe it's the relationship that she is in. She dissolves into it because she is defined by it. Too scared to become separate, because if she left how would she define herself? She can only find her worth in that relationship. Without these distractions that she fills her life with she would be hollow.  Away from the the noise of her busy life, or the party life, whatever it is that that fills the silence, she is anxious. She is afraid to be alone in the quite  because if she is, she can hear the sound of her restless heart. At the end of the day there is still a void that none of these things can fill. It isn't until she hits rock bottom, it isn't until she collapses in exhaustion, that she will find herself at the foot of the cross. Then she looks up, in adoration because she finally understands what love is.  It was never in any of the worldly things she sought them in. I pray that women would wake up to their worth, that God would show them what they're really looking for is true love. That is something that only be learned first through God, then experience through others. Only then through a real love can a woman become whole and know her true worth.
