Genesis 1:27
New Century Version
So God created human beings in His image. In the image of God He created them. He created them male and female.
It has not escaped me that Part Two of this Worth Project has been delayed. This has been for a few reasons, but the one I want to mention is my own struggle with worth and the way life seems to work. As I set out to tackle this topic, I found myself in a position of feeling rejected and betrayed by people I didn't expect it from. This type of thing taps directly on that worth part of me. I have done my best to navigate through that experience and remind myself of what worth is, and what it is not. And I am reminded of why I started The Worth Project in the first place.
And that brings me to the very, very beginning. The scripture referenced is pretty straightforward - we were created in the image (or resemblance) of God himself. This goes much deeper, I suspect, than what I could cover in this post, but the little I can grasp of this concept brings a confidence in the worth He places on you and me.
This is where worth originates. From the Creator. He created our worth. This is not a feeling, it's a fact. Let this knowledge filter into your heart and soul.
