how much do you think you are worth?


What's your worth?


there are people who thinks they are worth the world bowing their knees to them

there are people who thinks they are worth nothing more than a piece of thrash

there are people who has a healthy understanding of their worth

so which category do you belong to?


an article on my paper which i've read today reminded me that we are all special in our own ways.. where a test that a well-known speaker did at a seminar.. he asked if anyone wants the $500 note in his hands and many raised their hands.. then he crushed the note and asked again.. still there were people who raised their hands.. then he threw the note on the floor and stepped hard on it.. he then asked again and still there were people who raised up their hands.. he wanted to demostrate that no matter what he did to the money, people still wanted the note for it did not decrease the value of the note.. it is still worth $500.. in the same way, no matter how crushed or battered we are, we do not lose our original value..

in the same way, our worth doesn't depend on others or on our past experiences or even how we are treated.. God's the one who give us our worth.. and He says that we are worthy of Him to send His One and Only Son to die on the cross for our sins.. that's how much each of us are worth..

"16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

~John 3:16~



don't think too highly of yourself - for you are a sinner

don't think too lowly of yourself - for you are worth God to send Jesus to die for you

have a healthy self-worth of yourself



so how much do you think you are worth now?


Love,
Naomi
