Today's Scripture
Deuteronomy 7:6, NIV
The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.
Today's Word
God's creation is filled with magnificent scenes and things, but He says you are His most prized possession. Don't go around feeling wrong about yourself. Quit letting your thoughts tell you that you're ordinary. Quit wishing you were taller, or had a better personality, or looked like somebody else. God went to great lengths to make you exactly as He wanted. You have what you need to fulfill your destiny. When God created you in His own image, He stepped back and stamped His approval on you.
Somewhere on you, there's a tag that states, "Made by Almighty God." So put your shoulders back and hold your head high. You are extremely valuable. When those thoughts come telling you everything that you're not, remind yourself, "I have the fingerprints of God all over me—the way I look, the way I smile, my gifts, my personality. I know I am not average. I am a masterpiece." Those are the thoughts that should be playing in our mind all day long.
