Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places


Dear Younger Me, Look Nowhere Else

Dear Younger me,

No amount of compliments , likes on Facebook or Instagram posts, you get parties you are invited to, will give you unshakable security.

What you’re looking for, that feeling of assuredness, that you are loved, you’re worth something, you are approved of, you can and will only find in one place.

When you look upon the cross, you’ll see it in Jesus’ face.

That’s the only place you’ll always find it. He’s the only one who can give you everlasting security. So stop looking everywhere else.
