So really, they’re lying, thieving, controlling liars who are lying to you.

I may sound harsh. But, girl, I’m telling you the straight-up, gospel truth. And you need to hear it before those lying, thieving, controlling liars steal one more shred of your identity from you.

All who came before me were thieves and robbers. But the true sheep did not listen to them…The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.

John 10:8, 10 (NLT)

Be warned: You can’t trust what a lying, thieving, controlling liar says to or about you.

This is why if what they say doesn’t line up with what God says, don’t believe a word that comes out of their mouth.

Where to Find Proof You’re Looking For

The truth is, God loves you.

More than anyone ever has or ever will—God loves you.

Even when you’re feeling unworthy, think you’re not good enough for the people in your life, and you’re wondering if God still loves you…He does.

He never thinks you’re unworthy, unloveable, or inadequate. Plus, He’s loved you unconditionally this whole time when others haven’t.

God loves you beyond measure and couldn’t stand the thought of your sin separating you from Him for eternity. But His holiness couldn’t live with you near Him in a state of sin. Otherwise, you’d be toast before you knew what was happening.

So the Father sent Jesus Christ, His Son, to wipe out the debt you owed for your sins. Because of this, you don’t have to spend eternity paying for it yourself. And all you had to do in return was acknowledge Jesus’ crucifixion, death, and resurrection, and confess Him as your Saviour.

Jesus died from love for you. He paid for your eternal security with His life is the purest, truest act of love ever.

No one in the world will ever love you more than this. No one.

So the first place to look for proof of what God thinks of you is at the cross of Jesus.

You see, you’re worth the life of the King of the universe, which means you’re priceless. And don’t let anybody tell you different. Shut them down quick and fast if they try.

For it was you who created my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will praise you because I have been remarkably and wondrously made. Your works are wondrous, and I know this very well.

Psalm 139:13-14 (CSB)

As for all the sinning you’ve done. The moment you were saved, God stopped seeing it. He looks at you through the lens of Jesus’ shed blood. This means He sees you as one hundred percent righteous.

He made the one who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

2 Corinthians 5:21 (CSB)

This doesn’t mean God is OK with your continued willful sinning. But it does mean His grace is sufficient in your weakness.

2 Corinthians 5:17 (ESV)

Even better, because God thinks so highly of you, you can stop chasing the dreams others say you should want. You see, God’s always had a plan for you.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do.

Ephesians 2:10 (CSB)

You can choose to accept and trust in His loving thoughts about you. Then you’ll be free to follow His path for you to confidence, satisfaction, and peace.

The moment you accepted Jesus, you became God’s precious child. All your baggage, pain, and past mistakes are healed by the blood of Jesus and soothed by the love of God.

But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God.

John 1:12-13 (NLT)

On top of this, you’re also Jesus’ friend, chosen by Him for this special privilege. And when you accepted Jesus, you took Him up on His offer of the best friendship you’ll ever have.

I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn’t confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me.

John 15:15 (NLT)
