I Choose Today to Believe I am God’s Beloved Child

You know the Bible tells us how much God loves His Son. He created all things through Him, for Him. He delights in Him so much that He didn’t move heaven and earth for him, He made heaven and earth for Him! That is a lot of love!

And since He SO loves us, He sent His Son, Jesus, to die so we can be coheirs with Christ as God’s children. When God sees you, when God sees me, He see us through the lens of Christ, whom He made heaven and earth for, whom He delights.

So does that mean He loves and delights in us the same as He loves and delights in Christ? Yes!

But here is the thing, do we honestly believe God loves us that much? Delights in us that much? Because it seems too good to be true, right? I mean, I’m sure God loves us, but not that much, right?

Metaphorically, it’s like God looks at us through glass—and that glass is Jesus. What He sees is not our mess or our mistakes, but the righteousness of His Son. Scripture tells us we are hidden in Christ (Colossians 3:3), clothed in Him (Galatians 3:27), and made right in God’s sight because of Him (Romans 5:1).

If we really believed we were the beloved children of God—not just tolerated, not barely accepted, not begrudgingly saved—but delighted in, fought for, chosen, and seen… it would shift everything. How we approach God. How we see ourselves. How we respond to hurt. How we show up for others.

That’s not just healing—it’s identity.

Not just encouragement—it’s empowerment.

Not just comfort—it’s commission.

It’s one thing to know God loves us. It’s another thing to believe it—to feel it sink deep, change how we think, how we pray, how we live. That shift—from head to heart—isn’t about trying harder to believe. It’s about trusting the Holy Spirit to write the truth of God’s love on the tender places that still doubt it. The places that have heard rejection louder than grace.

If you’ve struggled to believe God could love you like that, ask Him to move the truth from head to heart. He loves to answer that prayer.

Romans 5:5:

“…God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.”

So today, take a quiet moment. Whisper to Him: “God, help me believe that I’m truly Your beloved child.” And then, listen. Watch. Rest in that truth. Because He delights in you—and He loves to remind you of it.
