I am loved!

I am human. There is nothing in all creation that is more important than me. The ocean is bigger than me. The mountains are bigger than me. You would think, by looking at them in their greatness and beauty, that they would be more important than me.....but they're not. Jesus Christ didn't die for the ocean. He didn't die for the mountains. He died for tiny little me. I am loved more than words can express. There are no words in any language anywhere in the world that can describe how much I mean to my Father in heaven. No one else would send their only son to the earth to be killed so I didn't have to be. God saw me in my misery and filthy, muddy, nasty life full of sin and He loved me anyway!

*edit* I found a great scripture I wanted to add to this post.....

The Lord is God. He made us, and we belong to him; we are his people, the sheep he tends. ----Psalm 100:3
