Not good enough
For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a terrifying expectation of judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES. Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, "VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY " And again, "THE LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE." It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
- Hebrews 10:26-31 (NAS)
So what do you do when you don't feel like you are good enough for anyone or anything? You turn to the one person who you definately aren't good enough for, but who accepts you anyway: Jesus. The person who died for your sins even though He knew beforehand that you would continue to willingly sin and trample all over His dead body. If that isn't love on His part, I don't know what is. So when you don't feel loved by those around you, when you feel mistreated, remember Who you mistreated first and what He did for you anyway. Then remember just how good you really have it.
