“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.” (Matthew 13:44-46 NIV)
It says in the bible that nothing can separate us from the love of God. Meaning, God is interested in us regardless of our shortcomings. You may be wondering why you, but God has a counter question. Why not you? God is in an all out passionate pursuit of you. Just as the pearl found by the merchant in the field, you are a rarity that God wants all to Himself. Don’t be dismayed by what you feel is inadequate, because He finds strength in our weaknesses. “Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.” (2 Corinthians 12:9 NLT)
