I don’t know if you realize this or not. But you matter.

I can’t honestly say that you matter to ME. I may or may not know you. Our paths may never cross.

But I can promise you this.

Whether or not you think you deserve it…
Whether or not you identify yourself in a positive way…
Whether or not you think you are talented…
Whether or not your family truly loves you…
Whether or not you are lonely and empty…

Even if you feel content and happy and fullfilled…
Even if you feel broken and lost…
Even if you have no known need for it…
Even if you can’t even breathe without it…

No matter who you are, where you are, or what you’ve done…

YOU ARE LOVED BEYOND MEASURE.

The One who made you loves you more than you can even fathom. You matter to Him. whether or not you believe in or him, or ever will believe in Him…. He loves you.

So suck it in like a kid smelling the 2nd of June on his last day of school. It’s freedom, it’s hope, it’s purpose, it’s love.

And it comes from God.
You matter.
