Valioso
Cada ser humano é precioso aos olhos de Deus. As Escrituras revelam que fomos criados à imagem divina, resgatados por alto preço e chamados para um propósito eterno.
O valor que Deus nos dá
Nosso valor não vem de conquistas ou aparências, mas do fato de sermos amados pelo Criador. Deus cuida até dos passarinhos — quanto mais de nós!
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet one of them will not fall on the ground without your Father.30 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered.31 So do not fear. You are worth more than many sparrows.
12 But how much more is a man worth than a sheep! So it is allowable to do good on the Sabbath."
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten before God.7 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Never fear; you are worth more than many sparrows.
26 Look at the birds of the air. They do not sow nor reap nor gather into barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
Preciosos aos olhos de Deus
O Senhor declara que somos preciosos e valiosos aos seus olhos. Ele nos chama de propriedade exclusiva e nos reveste de glória.
O verdadeiro valor
A Bíblia nos ensina que a fé, a integridade e o caráter são mais valiosos que ouro ou prata. O que tem valor eterno transcende o material.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither has circumcision any value nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.
24 But I do not hold my life as of any account if only I may finish my race and the service which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the good news of the grace of God.
