We are valuable to God !! We are your children, your precious treasure and possession !!
Our value does not depend on what others think of us or what we think of ourselves. The way God sees us determines our value.
There is an example that I read in a book and exemplifies this reality:
"A person outside the arts can throw a piece of art in the trash. Would that make the work worthless? ABSOLUTELY. The true value of the work is given by the observation and analysis of a collector, an artist, a scholar or someone who really knows the immense value of the work of art, unique in the world, different and invaluable that says: This is a invaluable work and I am willing to pay the highest price for it ".
For God our soul is worth more than the whole world! God sent His Son to the cross for love of us. He paid the high price. God accepts us and gives us the special value ... through His grace.
