Do we need to earn the right to be loved?

“I feel like I’m not worthy of being loved.”

Have you ever heard someone say this? Have you ever said it to yourself or to another?

This perception that you need to be worthy of love is more widespread than you might think.

It seems that many are of the belief that in order to receive love, be loved or find someone worthy of love; we, ourselves have to earn that right.

We have to prove we are worthy. We have to demonstrate, not only to ourselves and others, but to God, the universe, Source, or whatever you’ve chosen to call it, that you have earned the right to be loved.

And then there is the question: What constitute as being worthy in the first place?

Is there something we need to do? Lives we must save? Some mighty and great deed that we feel we are tasked with?

Are we even capable of such deeds?

Or is it that we should just be a good person, live our lives right and do all we can to make other people happy?

But none of the above is correct.

The truth is that we don’t have to do anything to be worthy or being loved.

Being loved is our birth right. It doesn’t matter who we are. It doesn’t matter what we do nor what we have done. It certainly doesn’t matter who or what we are being.

Everyone has the right to be loved by default.

Even demonic beings have that right.

And if they have that right, then so do you.

You do not have to do anything to deserve love.

You do not have to prove yourself as worthy because you are already worthy.

Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise.
