"Worthy"

There was a year where I wanted to have a mantra. On New Year's Day I decided I would have one word that I would focus on for the year. I wanted to become this word. I chose "worthy".
However, focusing on my mantra did not help me accomplish that goal.
Instead, I realized something far more important.

We will never be worthy.

Ever. Sure, as people we are worthy of plenty of earthly things. We are worthy of respect and kindness. We are worthy of a lot, but we aren't worthy of our God.

We will never be worthy of Him. We are not worthy of His Grace. We are not worthy of His Love.
We never will be.
That's what is so cool about God.
We don't need to be "worthy".
