If a Little Girl Understood Her Worth...

What happens to a little girl who understands her worth versus one who does not?
If a little girl does not understand her worth…
1. She will depend on others’ definition of her beauty.
2. She will struggle with who she is or where she fits in.
3. She will take harmful actions to fit in, i.e. sex, drinking, drugs, stealing, overspending, etc.
4. She will question whether life is worth living or hurt herself to deal with pain, i.e. sex, cutting, overeating, etc.
5. She will become a bully.
6. She will strive to be loved and possibly become someone’s baby momma or contract an incurable disease.
7. She will get her problems “fixed” and pretend as if it did not occur until she needs the next fix.

1. She will embrace who God made her to be. Psalm 139:14

God has defined your worth little girl.

2. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10
3. Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. 1 John 3:1
4. So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1:27
5. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Philippians 2:3
6. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9
7. But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. 1 Peter 2:9
