“You'll always settle when you don't know your value. The truth is, you are worth waiting for. If a person can't wait to have sex with you until marriage, they aren't the one for you. The person God has for you will want to honor you and fight for God's purposes with you. God's plan is always best, and you can't argue with that. If we want His best plan, then we must follow His instructions. My mother-in-law bought our daughter a new high chair, and we attempted to put it together without reading the instructions. We incorrectly put it together three times before I finally said, "Mom, let's read the instructions so that we can do this the right way." The sad thing is, this is how many people are doing relationships. They jump into one and try to do things their way, only to find out they've done things the wrong way. A high chair built the wrong way is just as ineffective as relationships done the wrong way.



Just as we didn’t understand how to put this high chair together until we read the instruction manual. The same is true for us until we read life's instruction manual given to us by our Creator; we will not understand how to build relationships the right way. If you're going through life without spending time in the presence of the Lord daily, then you won't understand how valuable and worthy you are. Our value can't be revealed to us by our friends, family, or relationships. Our worth can only be shown to us by the one who created us. He knows how valuable we are because He is the one that paid the price for us on Cavalry Cross. You'll discover the revelation of your worth as you worship, pray, and read the Bible. God will heal your heart, give you confidence, and speak His truth to you. His truth will set you free from every lie you've ever believed. Friend, you are worth the wait. You don't have to settle nor sell yourself short. Love yourself enough to let God's word be the standard for your life, and if someone can't rise to meet God's standards, give them the gift of goodbye. Because the standards God sets in motion for you are not flawed but will bring you the absolute best. Today, remind yourself that you are worth it!” – @brittnidelamora …
