there are a couple of lines in the song that really speak to me:
child of great worth, child of promise, daughter of the divine
I think it's easy, especially at great times of transition in life, to forget your own worth. You get swallowed up in all the fears and insecurities. But this lyric reminds me that there is so much promise and love in my life, and that I will be okay.
and the father looked down, and the angels surrounded that place
they knew the truth, all that you could do
Certain experiences in my life have made me wonder if anyone was really happy when I was born. Well someone was: God. For a girl that never got the feeling that anyone cared, it's incredibly powerful to know that someone loves me, that someone is watching out for me, that someone was so happy that I was born.
and you will too, if you have eyes to see what heaven sees in you
Like any young adult, I wonder why I'm here, what my purpose is. I constantly get caught up in comparisons and feel I don't measure up. But I do have worth, because everyone on this earth has worth. I just need to see...well, what heaven sees in me. I wouldn't still be around if there wasn't a reason, if God didn't have a plan for me. I just need to trust him.
do you understand who you are?
part of the father lives in you
and if you continue on this path
every promise God has given will come true
This also relates back to my lack of feeling any worth for myself. But I am a person with a soul and a heart and I am part of the fabric of humanity, and I was created in God's image, as we all were. I constantly think I'm not important, because it's easy to feel small in such a big world, but I am important. God lives in me, and has a plan for my life. The idea that I'm not just here for me, but to do God's work, makes me feel good. I personally do not believe that God's work is just preaching or missionary work, but also being a good person and showing love and living each day in a way that you can be proud of.
In a nutshell, this song makes me feel like a whole person again. And it's exactly what I need right now.
