As I was thinking of the 7 years of Daenne's Journal, one thing I want to do is go back to the beginning. I used to write based on what was happening in my life. Somewhere along the way, I started to overthink my writing. I am so glad to take us back from where we started.


As I was reading The Awe of God, by John Bevere, I stopped at chapter 8 to journal. This doesn't happen with every book, so I thought I'd share a few thoughts with you. Chapter 8 focuses on value- yours and mine.


I was reminded of our value to God. Did you know that we are so valuable to God that He sent His only begotten Son to die for our salvation (John 3:16). God's thoughts about us are so precious that they cannot event be counted. God has such perfect timing because I posted a video about God's love on social media today.


How are your thoughts about yourself? Are they precious? If they are not, they are not true. Well, how do you know what thoughts about you are true? I am so glad you asked! You will know the truth about your value and identity by reading the word of God. If we don't read the word for ourselves, the enemy will fill our minds with lies. Or he will do his favorite thing; he will use other people to tell us lies about ourselves.


The reality is, if you don't know the truth, you won't know when a lie is presented to you. God created us in his image (Genesis 1:26-27) and he calls us his children (1 John 3:1). We are coheirs with Christ. That is the truth!

Psalm 139:17-18 How precious are your thoughts God! How vastis the sum of them. Were I to count them they would outnumber the grains of sand.

 As you go through the day, I want to remind you that you are VALUABLE in God's sight. You are truly valued beyond imagination. Don't ever let yourself or anyone else make you believe otherwise.
