Unworthy vs. Worthless

I've been thinking about the difference between feeling worthless or unworthy.

When I feel worthless I'm believing lies that I'm no good, no one loves me, I'm not worth anything, no one even LIKES me. It makes me feel like crawling in a hole and hiding. Withdrawing from people.

On the other hand, when I see how God loves me so unconditionally, forgives me again and again and never gives up on me, it makes me feel unworthy. I want to fall on my knees and worship.

The whole focus is different. Worthless is focusing on ME. Unworthy is focusing on GOD.

If Jesus DIED for me how can I say I'm worthless? That is like saying that He didn't know what He was doing.
