Read Ephesians 1:4
"For He chose us in Him, before the foundation of the world..."
Devotional
Have you ever been picked last for a team or felt left out? It can make you wonder if you matter.
The amazing truth is that God chose you long before anyone else had an opinion about you. He didn't choose you because you're the smartest, funniest, or most popular. He chose you because He loves you.
Your value isn't based on what other people think. It's based on God's love for you.

- What are some ways I try to prove that I am valuable or important?
- How does knowing God chose me change the way I see myself?
Prayer
God, thank you for choosing me. Help me remember that my worth comes from you, not from what other people think. Amen.
