The older I am the more deeply I know this truth. And pressure coming my way to conform isn’t mostly from the world—it comes from legalistic believers. That’s terribly sad.
I spent some time with a Christian counselor the year before the pandemic, and he helped me see how much God delighted in me as a “beloved son” uniquely created as you describe. A key reinforcing text for me is Zephaniah 3:17:
“The Lord your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness, he will renew you in his love; he will exult over you with loud singing as on a day of festival.”
In other words, I am enough: God rejoices in me, the work of his hands!
