YOU ARE WORTH EVERYTHING TO ME!
“So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.” Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so. God saw all that He had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day...For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect... For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died....We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us…He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all—how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things?”
Genesis 1:17-31; 1 Peter 1:18-19; 2 Corinthians 5:14,20, Romans 8:32
and I mean it! Adoring you, Abba
I can just hear our God saying to me …
I took very special care in creating you. You are My very favorite. Why? I am love. Every aspect of Me is love and I desire relationship in order to share and expand My love. And so because I desire this throughout all that I am, you truly are worth everything to Me. You are crucial to the relationship I desire.
Your turn...How do you gauge your worth? See yourself through My eyes ... worth everything. This is not to produce conceit but instead to build confidence. Search and look every day until you receive how very precious you are to Me.
Now with praise My child, pray...
“For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be...I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me...And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.”
Psalm 139:13-16; Galatians 2:20; 1 John 4:16
