Rediscovering Your Worthiness—Seeing Yourself the Way God Sees You

Worthiness is one of the first things trauma steals. And one of the last things we learn to reclaim.

Growing up in emotional chaos and abandonment made me believe, for years, that my value depended on how perfect, quiet, helpful, or “un-needy” I could be. God had to heal that deeply distorted view of myself.

Today, I want to remind you:

Your worth isn’t earned.

It’s inherited.

It comes from God—not from your past.

How Childhood Pain Shapes Adult Self-Worth

When home is unsafe, children learn:

Their feelings don’t matter

Their needs are too much

Their presence is inconvenient

Their worth depends on behavior

These beliefs follow us into adulthood until God gently rewrites them.

But healing is absolutely possible.

What God Says About Your Worth

Here’s what scripture tells us:

You are fearfully and wonderfully made.” — Psalm 139:14

“You are chosen.” — 1 Peter 2:9

“Nothing can separate you from the love of God.” — Romans 8:38–39

Your past cannot rewrite what God has already spoken over your life.

Practical Ways to Rebuild Your Sense of Worthiness

1. Practice self-compassion

You’ve survived a lot.

Give yourself gentleness.

2. Replace old beliefs with God’s truth

This is how your identity begins to anchor.

3. Surround yourself with emotionally safe people

Healing is faster in a safe community.

4. Notice what triggers old wounds

Awareness is the beginning of transformation.

You Are Worthy of Healing

Healing doesn’t create your worth.

It simply uncovers what was always there.
