You are So Special!

Isa. 49:16
Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.


Feeling a little down? A little lost, maybe a little insignificant? Well, did you know:
There are approximately 100,000 species of trees
Approximately 1.8 million species of animal have been identified
Approximately 10,000 species of flowering plants

BUT....only ONE of YOU.

These things listed above have a natural life cycle, as do you. These things above were created by God, as were you. But NONE of these things were formed by God's hands, given God's breath, and offered the chance to change their nature!

YOU are special to God. You are unique and identified and important to God. Your creation was for a single purpose: to fellowship with God, to talk and walk with God as Adam did in the garden of Eden. Your purpose in life is simple: Please your creator. People spend so much time looking for the answer, looking for the purpose, when all you have to do is MEET GOD. Praise him, pray to him, BELIEVE in him and TRUST him and you will fulfill your purpose in life.

Take a moment today to recognize how truly precious and special you are! Remember God loves you and God died for you. He will never leave you nor forsake you! Have a good week and feel special, because you ARE.

In Love,

Elder Mark and Sister Dana
