Biblical Answer

Understanding Your Worth

As a person who has been bought at a price (1 Cor. 6:20), you are of immense worth to God. Your value is not determined by your accomplishments, possessions, or even your physical and mental health. Your worth is not defined by your productivity or how much you contribute to society. Instead, your worth is rooted in your identity as a beloved child of God. You are a unique and precious individual, created in the image of God (Gen. 1:27). Your worth is not diminished by your struggles or mistakes; rather, it is in these moments that you are most in need of God's love, care, and redemption.

The Paradox of Worth

It may seem paradoxical that your worth is not measured by your achievements or material possessions, yet you still have a desire to contribute and make a difference in the world. This is because your worth is not just about what you have or what you do, but about who you are in Christ. Your value is not diminished by your failures or setbacks, but rather, it is in these moments that you are most in need of God's grace and redemption. As you learn to see yourself through God's eyes, you will begin to understand that your worth is not defined by external validation, but by your relationship with God. You are worthy because you are loved, accepted, and forgiven by God, regardless of your circumstances.

Embracing Your Worth

So, how do you begin to see yourself as a person of worth? It starts by recognizing that your value is not defined by your external circumstances, but by your identity as a child of God. You are loved, accepted, and forgiven by God, regardless of your struggles or mistakes. As you learn to see yourself through God's eyes, you will begin to understand that your worth is not diminished by your failures or setbacks, but rather, it is in these moments that you are most in need of God's grace and redemption. Your worth is not something you earn or achieve, but something you receive as a gift from God. By embracing your worth as a child of God, you will begin to experience a sense of purpose, hope, and comfort that transcends your external circumstances. You will begin to see that your worth is not just about what you have or what you do, but about who you are in Christ.
