How do you determine your worth?
Think about it. Do you let your worth be determined by the input and opinions of others? I know I do.
Jesus' sense of worth was determined, not by what others thought of Him - good or bad - but by the Truth as expressed by His heavenly Father. He was "rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him" (1 Peter 2:4). Jesus was rejected by men - those He had created for Himself, those He loved, and for whom He laid down His life. But this is not what determined His value. He as chosen by God; that made Him precious; that is what determined His worth.
