Far too often we are not valued by others. We've been called names. We've been rejected. We've been ignored. We've been mistreated. Perhaps this has happened so often, that you have begun to believe it yourself. People have no idea of how much you are worth.
But there is someone who knows exactly how much you are worth - God.
You see, in a moment of time, God came down from heaven, born as a man to pay the penalty for yours and my sins. In John 3:16-17 we read, "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. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." That is how much you are worth.
As the holidays draw near and we think of lights and trees and presents, do not forget what happened that Christmas day two thousand years ago. God showed His love for you by sending Jesus. This is God's gift to you. And all you need to do is accept the gift.
