Value's been placed upon my life,
Christ came and died for me,
His blood, His life, a sacrifice
My life to guarantee.
He knew me in eternity
Before my life began,
Created me just as I am
Because He had a plan.
A plan to love me and to use
My life to others bless,
A purpose for which I'm designed
That only I possess.
Uniquely purposed for this plan,
For work He'd have me do,
In which I'll find fulfillment
More than I ever knew.
And, more than that, I'm cherished,
He wants to be with me,
So much that He would give His life
For my eternity.
How can I treat so recklessly,
How can I cast away,
What He so lovingly designed,
His purposes betray?
"I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord. They are plans for peace and not disaster, plans to give you a future filled with hope." Jeremiah 29:11 (God's Word translation)
"Can a mother forget the infant at her breast, walk away from the baby she bore? But even if mothers forget, I'd never forget you--never. Look, I've written your names on the backs of my hands..." Isaiah 49:14-16 (The Message)
"I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God's love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God." Ephesians 3:16-19 (NLT)
