According to the widely used, although somewhat hard-to-find-credit-for figures, a heart is worth around $1 million in the US. Livers come in second, worth about $557,000 and kidneys cost about $262,000 each. Not to speak about human skin ($10/inch), stomach ($500), and eyeballs ($1,500 each). When I read these statics, I was amazed. I am worth a lot. But then I noticed one major fact, for me to be worth that much, I have to die. Not a good option.
Yet, there are times we feel that way. We fell like there is no use or purpose to our lives. The fear of living another day is just to much. People give us papers that scream of our uselessness, worthlessness. Pages full of hurt, anger, bitterness. Telephone calls of raging words full of pain. Rumors we hear of how……………………….. You understand by now.
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him and without him was not anything made that was made. Jesus has been here the whole of earth’s existence. Not only is HE here, HE created all. Every DNA strain, every molecule, every atom, every…………..again you understand. Everything HE created. HE created you. Your complicated body, HE created one cell at a time. Your soul, HE form carefully, slowly, with love. HE has not left you, HE has stayed with you, even when YOU did not know HE was there. When you went through pain, HE was with you. HE felt your pain.
Now you may ask, where was HE during my rough times, during the pain? HE was right there. Maybe the question we need to ask is this simple one: did I ask HIM to put me in HIM? He has never left us. HE has never forsaken us. We just forget to ask to be in HIM.
You are worth so much, that HE will take your pain, your rejection, your disappointments, your fears. HE will never judge you for them, but take them and create someone beautiful, right Beloved. HE will stay with you until the very last breathe. Why? Because HE LOVES YOU and LOVE is a decision. To HIM you are worthy of HIS LOVE. Today, no matter what always be reminded you are worth the LOVE of the SON OF GOD, the LORD of the universe. Smile. Thought for the day.
