God loves you, and He has a great plan for your life. You are a wonderful creation made by God, and He has given you a unique purpose to fulfill in this world.
Ephesians 2:10 (AMPC) says as believers in Christ,

We are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].
It’s so exciting to know we are each created with a purpose and God has a wonderful life prepared in advance for us. But it’s also important to understand that we have an enemy, Satan, who wants to keep us from having the life Jesus died to give us.
Yes, Satan has a plan for us, too, but his plan is destruction and death. John 10:10 tells us the enemy “comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).”
/**/The good news is, through Christ, we have everything we need to overcome the enemy. We just have to know who we are in Christ (who the Bible says we are because of our relationship with Him), believe that we have His authority and understand how to release the power God has given us.
Faith in God is required for us to release the power and authority given to us in Christ. Romans 12:3b (NASB) says, “God has allotted to each a measure of faith.” This means God has given you enough faith to do His will, whatever it may be and no matter what the enemy sends your way to stop you.
