Some individuals may claim they have little worth. Others may highlight their achievements, wealth, or titles. Some assess their value through their family, marriage, or children. For others, hard work provides a sense of worth.
What makes you valuable if you have no accomplishments, money, titles, or family? If all you can point to is failure, despair, poverty, and illness, does that mean you have no worth? If we measure our value solely by material possessions, the person with the most possessions is deemed the most valuable. But this is not how God determines value!
"Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they” (Matthew 6:26)?
In God’s heart, all humanity is precious—not just humanity but everyone who has ever lived. You are so precious that Jesus would have died for you if you were the only person on earth! You are so precious that He has chosen to dwell in you, give you His life, fill you with His Spirit, and grant you His Name.
If you look at possessions or accomplishments to establish your value, you’re missing the point. Possessions can’t provide your true identity and worth. Money, fame, or great deeds don’t measure your value. You are valuable simply because you exist, created in the image of God. Your life matters to God.
“As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love” (John 15:9)
You may not feel loved, but you are loved. You may not feel special, but you are special beyond measure in God’s heart. Don’t let the world dictate your value. The world will discard you once it is done with you. The world doesn’t care when you find yourself wasted and trashed in life.
God has chosen you and offered you His very life. Accept your value. You were worth the blood of Jesus.
