Dearest child,

I created you for a purpose. You matter to me.

I want you to be the best you that you can be–I gave you certain talents and abilities, some you may know already, but quite a lot of them you have to discover still. Find out your strengths, trust in them, and use them as much as possible. You may have strengths that aren’t real obvious to other people, but I know them and I love what you are capable of.

Don’t ever, ever worry about being the best though. Your gifts are given to you to give you joy, to help the world be a better place, and to bring glory to me. It’s not about you. You don’t have to be the best at anything, except being you.

I love you. Infinitely. Endlessly. Completely.

God

The Lord your God is with you. He is like a powerful soldier. He will save you. He will show how much he loves you and how happy he is with you. He will laugh and be happy about you,

Zephaniah 3:17 (ERV)
