You Are Worth It

by Michael Davis on April 10, 2015

You are worth it. 

You are worth being pursued.

If you are a single woman, you are worth being pursued.

If you are a married woman, you are still worth being pursued by your husband.

It is worthwhile to wait in order to be pursued by the right man at the right time who will love you in the right way.

I realize that you might know this, but knowing something and living your life in light of what you know are often two different things.  And often what happens is that the more time that passes and the longer you have to wait, it gets easier and easier to forget a core truth – a truth that declares ‘You are worth it!’

It’s heartbreaking to see a girl, young or old pursue a guy.  And not just any guy, but any guy that will pay attention to her.  What’s heartbreaking to me in this is that somewhere along the line, that girl stopped believing that she was worth being pursued.

Is it wrong for a girl to ask a guy out?  Fair question, but it’s just not the right question.  The question at hand is whether or not you are worth being pursued… and you are!

You are worth being pursued, even if it means having to wait… even if it means having to wait a long time.

I have a wife.  Her name is Kyla.  17+ years into marriage and 22+ years into being best friends, she is still worth being pursued.  Why?  Not because she is awesome… and she is, but because she is a child of God, a daughter of the Great King. 

You may be awesome, but that’s not why you are worth being pursued.

You may be absolutely beautiful, but that’s not why you are worth being pursued.

You may be talented, but that’s not why you are worth being pursued.

You may be smart, but that’s not why you are worth being pursued.

You may be a lot of different things, but the one thing, THE thing that makes you worth being pursued is that in Christ, you are a daughter of the Great King.  You bear His image, not the image the world calls you to chase at all costs.  Your value, worth, significance and identity are all wrapped up in ONE amazing truth.  You belong to God!  And as His daughter, you are worth being pursued by a man who knows this King and knows how valuable and precious you are to Him.

There will be those that tell you to pursue the man of your dreams.

There will be those that tell you to run after the man who makes your heart skip a few beats.

There will be those that tell you to chase after the man who will give you everything your heart desires.

Do not listen to them.  Please do not listen to them.

You are worth being pursued by a man who knows who you are.

You are worth being pursued by a man who knows to whom you belong.

You are worth being pursued by a man who will be a tangible expression of how greatly loved you are by God.

Whether you are single or married, you are worth it.

Please don’t ever forget this… you are worth being pursued!
