I am wanted. Chosen. Held.

🧡

2025/4/25 Edited to

In a world where abandonment can leave deep scars, it is crucial to recognize that our identity is not defined by those who leave us but by the resilience we build from those experiences. The phrase 'I am not defined by who abandoned me' resonates deeply with many who have felt the pain of rejection. This powerful message encourages readers to embrace their journey of self-discovery and growth. When faced with adversity, defining ourselves by our triumphs and internal strength can lead to profound healing. This transformative viewpoint sheds light on the importance of self-worth and recognition of our inherent value. Furthermore, exploring the psychological impacts of such experiences can offer insights into how we view ourselves and the world. Engaging with communities that support personal growth can be beneficial. Resources like self-help books, therapeutic practices, and support groups provide a safe space to heal and learn that one is indeed 'wanted, chosen, and held.' The journey to recognizing one's worth is surrounded by supportive narratives that affirm our existence, reminding us that each individual has a unique path filled with potentials for joy, acceptance, and love. Embrace your individuality and celebrate the process of becoming who you truly are.

This pink wasn’t chosen to be loud.

Jesus and several disciples stand in a field under a clear sky. Overlay text invites people passionate about exploring what it means to be a follower of Jesus, who haven't seen "The Chosen," to connect.

Jesus embraces another man, both smiling, with blurred figures in the background. Overlay text discusses being humbled and recognizing oneself as no different from Pharisees, with good intentions but lost.

Jesus walks with a group of disciples in a natural, hilly landscape. Overlay text describes realizing a liberating perspective about Jesus and the Kingdom of heaven being present, thanks to the Holy Spirit and the show.
