It means so...What does the word value mean to you?<br /><br />It means something of worth. It means something worth having, something worth saving.<br /><br />What is one thing that you value about yourself? (C'mon - you know there's something...)<br /><br />I value my caring heart. For the most part, I believe I am an empathetic person who genuinely tries to put myself into other people's situations. <br /><br />What are the things that God places value on?<br /><br />God values our hearts. He places value on the fruit of the Spirit. He places great value on His children, and on their salvation.<br /><br />How might we learn to value ourselves as God values us?<br /><br />Read His Word! The Bible is FULL of the story of His love for us. We must refuse to believe the enemy's lies - whether he tells us we are nothing but worms, or that we are little gods.<br /><br />GOD BLESS!<br />Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-7181663724616851342013-07-29T06:18:01.537-07:002013-07-29T06:18:01.537-07:00I started my catch up here because I knew that I h...I started my catch up here because I knew that I had missed it. I sort of fell off the planet for the past several days for a variety of reasons, not the least of which was that Whimsy was coming home and I needed to get things ready for some mother/daughter time. <br /><br />Nothing to add at this point other than to say that the devotional you posted hit home to me as did some of the flame fanning in comments.

I value these qualities in the way I was raised and I think God excepts these things from us in order to follow Him. I know so many people who go thru the motions and attend church and yet cheat on their hours at the office and live not up to His standards and yet think they are good people. It really bothers me.<br />I appreciate your share today and thank you for it and enjoy your week.Annesphamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09355786666073982088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-40872304312927352212013-07-27T17:53:21.665-07:002013-07-27T17:53:21.665-07:00Sharon,

And to think, he calls us His "treasure" - now how is that for being valued. Thank you for this good devotional.<br />...MarshaMarsha Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05880659808422182525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-78056426661537557802013-07-27T17:11:13.343-07:002013-07-27T17:11:13.343-07:00I love the addition of your devotional favorite!!!...I love the addition of your devotional favorite!!!<br /><br />I too VALUE YOU! value for me = worth! I use to value my easy going nature to make friends, but not as much anymore. So I'll second the one that Chatty Crone shared... because I really do VALUE you and all you share here and at my place with me. You are priceless! I so value that God crossed our journeys!<br /><br />And oh my goodness, what God values? YOU! and me and each of us as His creation and masterpiece in progress ... yet some of the ones that come to me right off are: honesty, relationship, all the fruit of the Spirit (of course), oh let's just go with<br />Phil. 4:8 "...whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things..." I'm surprised that was not with your verses! <br /><br />WOW ... and that last question ... takes an extra ounce of unconditional vision... (like love) for I am my worst enemy and highly critical of myself. I expect more of myself than what I've been or done.<br />So maybe if I was or did ... I would value me as I do YOU and some other dear blog friends (that I've never even met that treat me dearer and kinder than family so...) ... Here's to God that He helps me find the value in me that He sees! I'm so glad I have someone like you to value and keep me going.<br />Thanks Sharon! and thanks for this fanning this flame ...<br /><br />Love and hugs,<br />PeggyPeggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07178137619890142365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-80971566471912754232013-07-26T19:31:41.163-07:002013-07-26T19:31:41.163-07:00I value that God gave me you as a friend and I val...I value that God gave me you as a friend and I value you!Chatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-75027310981499738852013-07-26T16:50:00.274-07:002013-07-26T16:50:00.274-07:00What God places value on is so far different from ...What God places value on is so far different from what our natural tendency is to value.
