I started this episode talking about how the world calculates self-worth, but the truth is, you can’t calculate your self-worth. It’s already been determined. Your self-worth was set by Jesus. You are so valuable Jesus laid down his life for you. Paul said, “I live by faith in the Son of God who loves me and gave himself for me.”
Main Points:
1. Don’t buy into the lies that your value is determined by your performance. Don’t accept the labels others put on your life. Don’t let the rejection you have received from others keep you from receiving acceptance from Jesus.
2. The opinion of others makes no difference in your self-worth. Because who you are, with Jesus, matters more than what other people tell you about yourself. Because you are made in His image, He is the one who determines your self-worth.
3. Rest in this truth: Your life has value. God has established your worth.
Today’s Scripture Verses:
Galatians 2:20 - “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
