When your clothes stop fitting and your worth takes the hit

1 Peter 2:9

In Christ, you are chosen and called out of darkness into His light.

When your clothes stop fitting and your worth takes the hit. There is usually more happening here than the obvious problem. There is a difference between acknowledging reality and surrendering your identity to it. One is wisdom. The other is captivity. Your worth was not built by performance, approval, age, appearance, or achievement. Jesus Christ is the One who names you. Bring the real problem to Jesus Christ, not the polished version. He already knows what is underneath.

What story are you attaching to this situation that Jesus Christ never said about you?

Jesus Christ, show me what is true in this situation and expose the story I have added to it. Give me wisdom for my part, courage to obey You, and enough trust to leave the outcome in Your hands. Amen.
