What is the most important message of the Bible?
Answer: that God loves us.

The Bible has many messages that are important to us, but the most important of these is that He loves us. Just trying to get our heads around that unconditional, incredible love is a good starting point to trying to understand the Bible as a whole. God's love, in short, really is mindboggling! How many fathers would sacrifice their sons, especially if that son were perfect? And that is just one example of His love.

We think that because we are x or because we are y, God loves us less than other people. No! God loves everyone the same. Don't forget that Jesus said: "I have come not to call the righteous but to call sinners." (Matthew 9:13). It is by His grace that He loves us and not because we are worthy of His love.

So when you feel weak and unworthy, take His strength and His worth and start your day!

God loves us, no matter how little we love ourselves!


Not only does this song tell us that, it also tells us that everyone is unique and different and exactly as God intended them to be. We're not meant to all look like carbon copies of each other like the way some celebs try just to look like Barbie girls instead of embracing their own originality. We are born with different physical and emotional qualities for a reason- to make us unique and loved in God's eyes. God loves us just the way we are physically, not the way we want to be. We should focus on making our hearts purer and leave our bodies as they are.


"Little Girl", Mary Mary

She was just 13 and I just don't think
That she ever seen her own beauty
And she didn't think she'd be anything
And that little girl she used to be me

[Chorus:]
Little girl, little girl
Wonder are you listening
Little girl, little girl
Struggling with your confidence
Little girl, little girl
God made you so beautiful
Little girl, little girl
I just thought that you should know

Sometimes you feel like you don't fit in
'cause you don't look like
all your other friends
Got your own thing going on
Girl you are so unique you are just
That way that
God intended for you to be

[Chorus]

Tell you what you should do
When you get up
In the morning look yourself in the
Mirror and say
I love me
Even with all of your flaws and all of your downfalls
Just be your best 'cause to him you
Already are

[Chorus]
