John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."
Let me start by saying that "IF" there is a GOD (and there is) and "IF"we are created and not evolved (and we are created), then there is no price that can be put on human life. Well. . . No price that we can pay! Even if you had a bank account that could pay off the world's debt a million times and still have enough to buy every one in North America a tank of gas everyday until gas ran out (with inflation) you would still be short.
But it seems that we (humans) don't see it that way. The world would have you believe that you are nothing but the sum of a billion years of circumstance, culminated and defined by your failures and ultimately replaced after your death by someone who is better than you. All of that to carry the torch of evolution into the future.
However . . . We know that we are more than that lie. We are more than the picture that the world has painted us to be. We have a value that is not measurable. And remember we have not placed this price tag on ourselves. GOD has set the price for humanity. And believe me the price is more than what anyone on earth would agree to pay.
Q. Well how do you know how much something is worth?
A. Something is worth what someone else is willing to pay!
What did GOD pay for you? His law and standard said that as special as you are your sin renders you worthless and worthy of death. But what did GOD do? He paid with his own blood and life. And some of us won't even sow the seed of love, and respect into our own lives. We value the world over our own souls. We see the value the world places on us and live accordingly. But when you realize your true worth you will live each moment in that value. The value that GOD places on your life. The value that Satan hopes you will trade him for whatever the world is offering. Remember you are worth more than your past. You are worth more than who you used to be. Remember what GOD has invested into you and live accordingly.
Be encouraged!
I love you always and in all ways.
