The value of an individual

So, lately God has been showing me a lot about the value of a person. Whether you are in the worst position of your life and feeling completely worthless or are in the best place ever, this could be a good reminder.

Think about this:

The person who is caught in a world of sin right now, not walking with God, with no money, and no family, living out on the street has JUST AS MUCH VALUE as the person walking in great relationship with the Lord, doing everything right in their life, with all the wisdom, knowledge, and finances imaginable. That blows my mind.

God hand-crafted you. It wasn't an accident that you are on earth. He fearfully and wonderfully made you (Psalm 139:13). He has a purpose for your life (Jeremiah 29:11). He sent his only son, Jesus, to die on the cross for you because He loves you and you are worth something to Him. And so if you are in the best place ever with Jesus, let me just remind you that you have so much value and worth. Keep seeking the Lord for the things He has for you. And if you are in the worst place ever with the Lord and having a really hard time or are caught in sin, let me especially remind you: you have so much worth and value in God's eyes. You are wanted, not rejected. You are loved unconditionally, not despised. God has plans for your life. You mean so much to Him! And He wants to do amazing things in your life and through your life. And even if you have messed up everything and found yourself flat on your face on the floor, God still values you!


I hope this speaks to some of your lives in great ways because God's love is sooooo incredible! Keep seeking Jesus. If any of you want me to pray for you, I'd be more than willing. My email is lhanson09@gmail.com if you want to get in touch or share anything God is showing you.

Much love~
