Value of life

1Sam 26:24 “As surely as I valued your life today, so may the LORD value my life & deliver me from all trouble.”
It seems that we tend to value ourselves based upon what we do, what we have, who likes us, how many people like us, who needs us, etc.
The amazing truth is: We could have nothing, no friends, no family, no job, no belongings, bad health- yet in God’s eyes be seen as beautiful, valuable beings. Value comes from our hearts, through how we love with compassion.
1Tim 4:8 “For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life & the life to come.”
My prayer for each of us is that we allow ourselves the grace to see each other & oneself through the eyes of God. May we rewrite our definition of “value,” to deep appreciation of one’s heart. I pray that through this new perspective, each one of us experiences hope, forgiveness, grace & unconditional love. In Jesus name I pray, Amen
