Your insecurities are valid but they do not determine how valuable you are. We all struggle with some form of insecurity or another and most likely will have to deal with them all our lives but that's just the price of being human. However, as believers, we do not allow those insecurities become part of our identity.
The enemy wants you to go into hiding away from the presence of God because of your insecurities. He aims to convince you that your fear of failure, feelings of unworthiness, comparisons to others that make you feel inferior or inadequate are who you are and that this is how God and others see you. None of that is true and we should remember what the Scriptures say that "Greater is He that is in us than he who is in the world" and in all things "we are more than conquerors".
God wants us to come to Him just as we are, with all of those fears and insecurities and the Bible says He will give us rest, to come to Him with all our burdens and concerns in exchange for His peace and presence.
Life can and will get hard from time to time but our faith should stay in the knowledge that Christ has overcome the world for us and so where others remain in their place of weakness with no help, we have a Savior in whose presence our weakness is made strong.
This is just to encourage anyone feeling overwhelmed by the weight of their insecurities. Your insecurities are valid but they are not who you are nor do they determine your value and worth to God. You are His precious masterpiece and He loves you more than your pretty little head can fathom. Stay encouraged in the Lord. Praise Him through your struggle and you are sure to receive His peace that passes all understanding.
