My Value

Here's a link to a podcast I just listened to that moved me to tears...:)

Love Life-Love


Points that Touched my Heart


  • I am unique, created in God's own image and likeness, wonderfully and fearfully made.
  • Who/what determines your value? The value you place on yourself will determine what and who you will give yourself to.
  • Love desires to benefit others at the expense of self because love desires to give. 
  • I am valuable because someone so great, the Maker of heaven and earth, my Creator, the God above all things, loves me so much, and He bought me at a price; and because of that, I am no longer my own; instead, I live to glorify God in my life.
  • No matter what you've gone through, your value remains the same- because it is who created you that determines who you are.
  • I am complete in Christ.
I've been contemplating the entire week on what to share tomorrow, at our cell group gathering. I came across this and lots of other words of inspiration but this is special, because it touched my heart so deeply that it moved me to tears. This is not new to me though, because always, without fail, the realization of how much God loves me, stirs me. It is such an overwhelming, humbling, and joyful experience to not just know, but to own the love of God, freely, whole-heartedly and unconditionally given to someone like me, a tiny, small, almost unrecognizable speck in the universe. Yes, I am proud of what I have become- my achievements, experiences, learnings, and everything that I've gone through the past 21 years of my life; but I'm prouder that I belong to the one great living, almighty, and loving God who made it all possible. My true value comes not from being on my own, but by being with Him, created by Him, and living for Him. I'm unique, I'm special and I'm a daughter of God. I deserve the best, and I'll wait for it, for him:); because I know that with God, the best is yet to come....and that best, is always worth the wait:) meow
