What are you worth?

I have struggled with this questionfor so many years. How we define ourselves and how we view our worth can be a very vulnerable place because what defines us will drive us.
In John 4 is the story of the Woman at the Well.....a woman who was defined by her life circumstances....her choices. She isn't very different from me or from you. Searching for love, affirmation, and worth.
Our worth/value is often deteremined by our past, our present, our family envirnment, the world's opinion of what is worthy or valuable. Our worth/value can be shaped by what others say about us or even to us.
Satan has targeted women from the beginning....in the Garden with Eve. You see he knows our worth and he wants to plant seeds of doubt inside of us that cause us to doubt God, doubt His love, our worth and value to God....."He must be holding out on me, He isn't giving me His best."....Lies from our enemy.
John8:44 - "When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
John8:32 - "Then you shall know the truth and the truth will set you free."
What does God say about your worth/value? Read Psalm 139 every day....read it in different versions and ask God to tell you from His Word what you are worth!
If you are in the Ocala, Florida area "come and see" like the Woman at the Well a man who told me everything about me.....He knows me, every detail of my life and He still loves and thinks I am worthy.
