WHO AM I?

I will realize my value because I am made in the image of the Almighty God (Genesis 1:26). I am valuable simply because I was created in the image of God. My value, my worth has nothing to do with my family, society or possessions. My value does not depend on my knowledge, my intelligence, my skills, or lack of it.  My worth is not based on anything intrinsic nor extrinsic. My value is stemmed from the fact that I am fearfully and wonderfully made by the Hand of the Creator God (Psalm 139:14). Without that knowledge and belief, my worth will be found in the wrong things in life. From my very existence, the Lord God found me valuable. WOW!  Can you imagine that?  Before the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the All-Powerful God found me to be someone of worth. I did not become someone of value because I accepted Christ as my my Savior. God sent His Son to be the Propitiation for my sin because of my value. (John 3:16). Jesus Christ became our Salvation not to make us valuable, but because we are valuable. We are all people of worth to a Loving, Caring Savior. He died for you, and wants to prepare a place for you.  You are special, not because of anything you did or did not do, but because God made you in His image.  You are special, do you know that? Do you believe that?  How are you living out that belief?

  1. This is a great post, Brenda. I liked in your post when you said, “My value is stemmed from the fact that I am fearfully and wonderfully made by the Hand of the Creator God (Psalm 139:14). Without that knowledge and belief, my worth will be found in the wrong things in life. ”

    I agree with you. So many Christians find their self-worth in people, drugs, and other things that will give them no purpose, but if they turn to the Lord; He already says who we are.

    I actually did a similar blog post that talked about this topic. If you wanted to check it out, the link to the blog post is below:
