1 Samuel 16:7
Sometimes in this world, our self-worth is dictated by organizations or individuals based on our knowledge, skills, personality, gender, or even our ethnicity. I know we need structure and order; however, sometimes others’ structure makes us feel less than adequate or perhaps less valuable as humans. Because we are put into groups in a worldly view, we have a tendency to relate that importance level to our own self-esteem or self-worth. God does not put us in groups of importance or significance. (V. 7) “People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” We are all His children and are all equally important to Him. “Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God- children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.” (John 1:12-13) We are His and He is ours, forever! God loves Ya;)
