DISCOVERING YOUR TRUE WORTH

We’ve all seen the MasterCard
Commercials featuring two or three
Activities or items like a
European vacation or a catcher’s mitt
And the accompanying costs

The last scene emphasizes
The memories made on that vacation
Or the relationship created
When a father and son play catch
In the backyard something that
Has emotional value a single word
Then appears on the screen “Priceless”

Some things are of such
Immense value that no amount
Of money can purchase them
And no dollar amount
Can describe their worth

Whether you believe it or not
You are priceless
Your value extends far beyond
Silver and gold
Discovering your true worth

Too many of us put too great
Value on material things
We think that having
The right car, clothes or house
Means we’re worthwhile

The problem occur
When our identity gets wrapped
Up in those things
When we let them define who we are
Could it be that we are filling our lives

With things and seeking status
In the eyes of others to cover
Our own lack of self-worth
Maybe your self worth is high
Discovering your true worth
You have value simply because
You were born upon this earth
And if you’re smart you’ll be aware
Of and appreciate the enormous
Gifts you already have in your life

Now to the big questions
How much is your life worth to you?
Every breathe you take is priceless
Take a fresh look at who you are
And who you are created to be

How do you value who you are?
How do you value what you’ve accomplished?
How do you value being on this earth?
To care for others you must care for yourself
I suggest you do it sooner rather than later
