From the moment I met You
I knew
Life’s not always going to be perfect
In this fractured and broken world
but I hear You whisper…
“Know your worth”
Trudging through mud
Dirt will cling to your shoes
Never permeating the soul
Know your worth
Yours is the choice
to walk around dirty
Or have Him wipe it all clean
Know your worth
If we wore our sins
For all to see
What would that look like?
Know your worth
He knows
And He loves
Despite what you’ve done
Know your worth
Be clean or unclean
He knows
He knows your worth
He’s known it
from the that very first moment
when He thought you into existence
He knew it
Self-worth should not be based upon what others think or say
Your value is not in who you are but rather whose you are
Know your worth
You are worth blood
You are worth tears
He chose to give His life for you
Did you hear that?
You are worth dying for
Know your worth
You have been bought and paid for by Christ, so you belong to him—be free now from all these earthly prides and fears.
1 Corinthians 7:23
Have you felt put down or forgotten? Do you feel insignificant?
Please know that our God in heaven values you so much that He gave His one and only son.
“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
I want to encourage you today to know your worth and in turn remember to grace those around you with words that would edify them. That you be an example of God’s love to those around you.
Be encouraged | Be faithful | Be kind

Beautiful! I wrote about this very thing in my post ‘Love of a Father…’ today – how there is a vast difference between being undeserving and being unworthy. We are not deserving of the grace that God has shown us, but worth is ascribed to us – by the extravagant price that was paid on our behalf. Such a wondrous truth!
Blessings,
Kamea

Celi,You know I love this article or poem. We should never allow people define who we should be. Because they will get it wrong! Our value is in “whose we are” just as you said. People don’t own us neither were they there when God created us.
I am blessed reading this.
Many Blessings.

Although I’ve read 1 Corinthians 7:23 before, the version you shared, struck me in a whole new light,
You have been bought and paid for by Christ, so you belong to him—be free now from all these earthly prides and fears. 1 Corinthians 7:23
That verse and especially, “be free now from all earthly prides and fears” speaks directly to your beautiful words on “knowing our worth” which tied together, hit me in a new profound way. These words stated so plainly, right there in Scripture, speak to our fears and most especially any desire for approval from others. Our main focus should be Christ and Christ alone which will give us such freedom in Christ!
I too love the hymn I Surrender All and I loved how you encouraged us to Surrender All to experience the peace that surpasses all understanding.
Thanks so much for sharing!
