To Chris O,
If we had to rely on our feelings or our inherent worth....to be loved by God, we would ALL be in trouble! lolFeelings come and go, change, and so forth.
But the one place I have found consistancy is Gods Word the Bible.
Perhaps you remember the words to an old childrens song we learned in churchJesus loves me this I know...for the Bible tells me so...little ones to him belong..we are WEAK bit He is STRONG ...yes Jesus loves me...etc...
There is alot of truth in that little tune.
We KNOW God loves us because His Word tells us
over and over that His does.
And worth? We were worth enough for Him to Create us.....give us life...and surround us with this beautiful planet to live on.
On top of that He His Only Son Jesus so that we could live with Him forever.
You are VERY WORTHY to God.Mt 10:31
Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.Lu 12:6
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?Lu 12:7
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
