God Delights in You!

May 15, 2022

On Mother’s Day, Bible passages like Proverbs 31 are often presented as a description of the ideal woman or Christian. It’s offered as a high standard that can leave us feeling like we don’t measure up.

But God doesn’t need you to aspire to be something or someone you’re not. He’s absolutely pleased with you and likes everything about you!

No matter what roles you play in this life, there’s no benchmark to meet as a believer. God is dancing over you and delighting in who you are. Check out this message and be awed by His love and praise for you!

After salvation, it’s normal to wonder what comes next. We want to grow, and we’re often taught that growth comes from seeking more: more righteousness, more forgiveness, more sanctification. We’re told as we do our part, we become more pleasing to God. But what if growing in your faith isn’t about doing or seeking more? What if the pressure’s off, and you already have everything you need for life and godliness? In this message, I share what spiritual growth looks like in the life of a believer who understands their new identity in Christ. It’s not about what you’re doing but who you are. You’ll find peace and joy as you discover growth is simply learning and trusting in the finished work of Christ!
