Finding my worth

You know what?

I have come to realise that as women...young women, it is very important that we understand our worth.

As Daddy's Princess, you are far more precious than rubies. You are a pearl of great price who must not throw herself down for pigs to feed on. Do not be the ring on the snout of a pig... you will only be put in a sludge...always.

This morning, on my way to work, I came to an understanding that as an individual, when you know your worth and are unwilling to settle for less, you will be amazed at the incredible and unimaginable options available for you to choose from. I know that the first thing that will come to mind for some of you will be concerning the choice of spouse but when I say this, I mean same for other choices we may have to make in future... like choosing to come to Ghana to develop your country rather than choosing to work in a developed country to make so much money.

Even on the matter of being single and choosing a spouse, Sinach said something I so love! She said that true(I added this) contentment does not come from our would-be spouses or from anything else than the knowing that we are fulfilling Daddy's call on our lives. That is all that matters.

I would add that indeed, our worth does not come from what a man may say about us but rather from what is written in Daddy's books concerning us. I had an interesting conversation with a friend and after listening to all that he said, there was a mental picture formed in my head of how effulgent in confidence I would be after hearing him talk about my worth. In a split second, my correct-self addressed me by reminding me that his opinions of me should not be the measuring rod for which I assess myself. Because come to think of it... if a man's opinion of me is what makes me confident in myself, then what happens if that man tells me that I am worthless? That is sure case of low self-esteem coming up! You know what, God's opinion of me is all that matters because at the end of the day, my life's work is truly before an audience of ONE. 

...that was a re-calibration for me right there :)... check out Sharing Life's post titled, "CALIBRATE". 

How easy we sometimes tilt towards that line of believing that what a man may say about us is all that matters. Chale. 

Still, I need more WORD in my system to confidently carry myself in the manner that I should.

It is well ooo
