God cares about us. He cares far more than you and I care for our children. He already thinks we are wonderful, and He wants us to agree with Him. He doesn't want us to allow our sense of value to be determined by others. He wants us to accept His estimation of our worth. Yet, too often, we consider others' opinions accurate and God's a biased suggestion. We don't fully believe that He really thinks we're wonderful, or if we do, we assume it's because He's obligated to have some kind of positive opinion about everybody.
Nothing could be further from the truth. God's not obligated to do anything He doesn't want to do. He's certainly not obligated to flatter us. He knows all truth, and He can't lie. So why do we discount His opinion and look to faulty human beings for confirmation?
We are His dearly beloved creatures, and that is what determines our value...His assessment of us. It all comes down to whom we are going to believe: the omniscient, omnipotent God of the universe or an imperfect human being who doesn't have any better judgement than we do?
I'm stylin' with God!
Blessings,
