I Believe

You are God’s

purpose.

You are God’s

reason for being.

There is no one

God loves more

in all the universe

than you.

God created

the universe

for you.

The sunrise—

the sound

of ocean waves

breaking—

the gritty warmth

of the sand

between your toes—

all of it for you.

The ground

you walk on

is holy ground.

The air

you breathe

is the breath of the Spirit.

Everything around

you is made holy,

not just because

of Who created it,

but because of who

it was created for.

You are

a precious

child of God.

Own it.

Declare it.

Shout it.

Sing it.

You are

so loved.

Amen.

1 John 4:16
