The little girl I was that reached out to befriend everyone and often got rejected turned into the woman God chose and approved.
I sought refuge in attention seeking. I begged for friendship. I sought the lustful gaze of strangers.
None of it compares to the delight our God shows to those who fear His name. I found purpose in being his holy handmaid, created to be found in Christ and do good works for His glory.
God love me. He likes me. And that is truly enough.
I'm not just "weird", or "quirky" or "that lonely black conservative woman". I am accepted, purpose-filled, fearfully and wonderfully made, and affirmed by the Lord.
The world will continue to further reject me. They can't help them. I forgive them. Without Christ, Id be just as lost as they are.
I look to God for my confidence. His righteousness is my aim.
