I must’ve watched too many rom coms when I was young
Because I have often thought that to be loved
Is to be a certain kind of person worthy of a certain kind of love
But that is just a bunch of words that don’t really make sense
To be worthy of love is to be
(And you are being right now, are you not)
And to be loved 
Is to be woken to the reality of the One 
who has made us, saving us every day
Setting aside places for us, holding us in His heart
Despite us 
Despite us

To be loved despite—
So then, 
why does worth matter at all?
