13 REASONS WHY YOU MATTER

By: Esther

1.) John 3:16 "God loves you."

Let me put this on your mind: you are loved. The reason why God the father gave Jesus Christ is that He loves us and wants us to have eternal lives. I really don't understand why some people think no one loves them wherein fact, God loves them in a way they can't imagine. You matters because God loves you.

2.) Jeremiah 29:11 "God have plans for you."

In this world, only God knows what you will become, who you're going to be, what will happen to you and what the future may bring to you. Surely, when you're down, He will give you hope. When life seems so unfair, He will give you hope. When everything seems so wrong, He will give you hope. Why? Simply because He wants to prosper you. You matters because God have prepared a future for you.

3.) Philippians 4:13 "God gives you strength."

In Jesus name, there is power. In His name, nothing is impossible. Through Him, you can do all things. You can turn impossible things into possible. You matters because you can do everything since it's Christ who strengthens you.

4.) Psalm 32:8 "God will guide you."

Throughout your life, it is God who will guide you. It is God who will instruct and teach you in the way you should go. You matters because God will counsel you with His loving eye on you.

5.) Deuteronomy 31:6 "God will never leave you."

The world is full of uncertainties. Indeed, life is unfair sometimes. You might encounter chaos and dilemma along your way but you need to be strong, have courage. You should not be afraid or terrified of them because our God is greater than them. The Lord your God goes with you. You matters because He will never leave you nor forsake you.

6.) Isaiah 43:7 "God created you."

You are here on earth because it is God's will and He put you here. You are called by His name. He formed and created you to bring all the glory to Him. You matters because God created you for His glory.

7.) 1 Peter 5:7 "God cares for you."

Anxiety is a big dilemma we, youths, are facing nowadays. A simple overthinking might lead to anxiety. Having anxiety might stressed you out and worst, it might lead to depression. Now, close your eyes and cast all your fears to Him. You matters because He cares for you.

8.) 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 "God will comfort you."

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. In times of troubles, God is more than willing to comfort us. A comfort no one can fathom. With the comfort we ourselves receive from God, we can also comfort those in any trouble. You matters because God comforts you.

9.) Psalm 55:22 "God will sustain you."

One thing that is very reassuring is that, God will never let the righteous be shaken. When it seems like you carry all the world's burdens, cast all your cares on the Lord. You matters because God will sustain you and He's willing to carry your burdens.

10.) Mark 11:25 "God will forgive."

Just as the bible says, never let the sun set without forgiving someone who committed sin to you. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them just how the Lord forgives you. You matters because your Father in heaven is capable of forgiving you no matter what, just repent.

11.) Romans 15:13 "God will give you hope."

Our God is a God of hope. He gives hope to the weak. He gives hope to the broken hearted. He gives hope to the needy. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him. You matters because God will give you hope and you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

12.) Matthew 7:7-8 "God will deliver."

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. You matters because if you ask, seek, and knock, He will deliver.

13.) 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 "God dwells in you."

Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and God's Spirit dwells in your midst? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy that person; for God's temple is sacred, and you together are that temple. You matters because God dwells in you.
