Today I give thanks that God loves me unconditionally. And that God loves you unconditionally. Today's Encouragement of the Day email topic was having your identity be first and foremost "one who is loved by God." When we can rest in that, we do not have to feel pressure to live up to the standards of all the social constructs surrounding an identity as a tennis player, a nerd, a dancer, a daughter, etc.; we try our best to be who God wants us to be and walk in our identity as God's love. And yes, we make mistakes and mess up all the time. All the time. But God always welcomes us with open arms if we are willing to accept that embrace.
