Where I Belong

October 18, 2011

Part of my journey has been dealing with lies I believed. Believing that I wasn’t good enough. A lot of times I went through life and felt like I never measured up. I didn’t matter where I turned…God, friends, work. There was constant rejection. One of my major problems was never feeling good enough, especially with God. I’ve since learned that is a LIE Something I have learned at Summit is

There is NOTHING you can do to make God love you MORE
There is NOTHING you can do to make God love youLESS

Do you realize how powerful that statement is??? God loves you fully as you are right now in this moment. When I considered all that I had done that was so powerful. I still really struggle with that statement and “being good enough” but there has been change.

It’s about me realizing where I belong and where I get my worth from. If the God of the universe LOVES me infinitely then I need to show some self-respect. I don’t have to try to be “good enough” or please others because I already am good enough. Through Jesus I have been made whole again.

I’ve found this new Kelley and this new worth. The place where I belong is with God…seeking after Him and if people don’t like it that’s okay. I’m okay with letting people go who want me to sacrifice who I am to fulfill something in them. This is Kelley and I’m not compromising myself anymore to please others.

I discovered this song yesterday and it impacted me in a HUGE way…I still struggle with a lot of things…I am on a journey that probably last until I die…but daily I am surrendering my need to please and be loved by others…Where I belong is with Jesus…I am filled by Him not by others <3
