It explores how people measure value through beauty, intelligence, status, success, and even ethnicity or physical ability, then shows how those measures distort identity. The message centers on God’s love: believers are called children of God and remain worth something because of Christ’s purchase through blood, regardless of personal failures.","Children of God, You Are Worth Something! [A Sermon Concept]  \n\"How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!\" (1 John 3:1a).  \n\"I'm such a loser! I'm afat, stupid, ugly, klutzy, unlovable geek. I can't do anything right. I'm no good to anybody. I'm just plain worthless!\"  \nDear friends, have you ever felt that way? I have. As a child, I felt worthless each of the many times I dropped and broke one of my mother's dinner plates. As a teenager, I felt worthless the time I lost a high school tennis match 6-Love, without even winning one point. I felt worthlesson occasions when girlfriends told me to get lost. I have felt worthless after making three wrong turns and ending up miles off track, worthless after the time I backed into a parked truck. I've felt worthless after making mistakes on the job and getting chewed out by the boss. Clumsy, no talent, unwanted, ignorant ... worthless--I can't count the number of times I've felt that way about myself. You've probably all had similar experiences and emotions.  \nBut there is no reason for me to feel worthless. There is no reason for you to feel worthless. The words of God, spoken to us in our text provide an eternal message of comfort. No matter how worthless you or I might feel, God tells us otherwise. He says,  \n\"CHILDREN OF GOD, YOU ARE WORTH SOMETHING!\"  \nI. How The World Judges Worth  \nA. Criteria by which people judge.  \n1. Two biggest are beauty and intelligence. (Dobson)  \n2. Other measurements people use to add up your value include social status, success, talent, ethnic background.  \n3. These are common, but not Christian measures for establishing worth.  \nB. Examples  \n1. Beauty: the so-called Gold Coin of Human Worth  \na. Most popular in school?  \n1. Good-looking kids (cutest faces, latest hairstyles, nicest shapes, least pimples, best wardrobe)  \n2. No date if you're an overweight pizza-face wearing clothes from the Goodwill Store.  \nB. Might be the nicest person in the world, but not part of the \"in\" crowd if one does not have good looks.  \n2. Intelligence-the supposed Silver Coin of Human Worth.  \na. Parents may rate children by how smart they are.  \n1. Too often we hear parents call children \"stupid\" or \"dummy.\"  \n2. Hear enough times a person--child or adult--will believe it!  \n3. If a person believes it he'll stop trying to learn and live down to the label attached to him.  \nb. Some children are smart.  \n1. Always excel, always at the top of the class.  \n2. Expect to be at the top of their profession someday.  \n3. What if it doesn't happen?  \n• B's and C's instead of A's?  \n• Passed up by others smarter than they?  \n• Result: crushed ego, ruined self-esteem.  \n• Own sense of worth depended on intelligence and their academic performance.  \n3. Further examples all around us.  \n1. Size of home, make of car are status symbols.  \n2. Some judge worth on basis of skin color.  \n3. People with physical liabilities (elderly, handicapped, retarded) are often seen as drains on society--viewed as problems instead of as people.  \n4. Newly conceived children are devalued--lives ended with the approval of the law.  \n5. Our world is superficial and wrong in its way of judging the worth of human beings.  \nC. Too often, we listen to the world's standards.  \n1. We try to measure up to the world's judgment of worth.  \na. Young people give in to drinking/sexual activity to be accepted by their peers.  \nb. Young couples struggle to keep up with the Joneses, going heavily into debt.  \nc. Aging adults feel worthless as bodies and abilities slow down.  \n2. We are too concerned about what the world thinks.  \na. There is a much better judge.  \nb. Be concerned about what God thinks of us and how we fit into his scheme of things--God is the final judge of real worth.  \nII. How God Judges Worth  \nA. How do you think God sees you?  \n1. A poor, miserable sinner?  \n2. One who daily sins much and deserves nothing but punishmen","cbCaiboBjkFQQyTM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiboBjkFQQyTM","pdf",52432,1,4,"English","en",105,"# Children of God, You Are Worth Something!\n## How The World Judges Worth\n### Criteria by which people judge\n### Examples\n### Too often, we listen to the world's standards\n## How God Judges Worth\n### How do you think God sees you?\n### God sees us first and foremost as his children\n### Our value does not lessen","[{\"question\":\"为什么有些人会觉得自己一文不值？\",\"answer\":\"文中以个人经历说明，世人常以外貌、智力、地位、成功等标准衡量价值；当这些标准落空或遭遇挫折时，人容易陷入“我不配”的自我评价。\"},{\"question\":\"世界如何判断人的“价值”？\",\"answer\":\"世界主要用外貌与智力作为两大标准，并进一步用社会地位、成功、天赋、族裔背景等来“计算”人的价值。\"},{\"question\":\"神如何看待信徒的价值？\",\"answer\":\"神首先把人看作自己的儿女，因父的爱而称他们为“children of God”。价值不是因为人有多么完美，而是因为神用基督的血买赎得来，且神的爱与价值都不会因人的错误而降低。\"}]","Children of God, You Are Worth Something! - Sermon Concept | PDF",1787817983,10,{"code":4,"msg":31,"data":32},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":33,"title":13,"keywords":34,"description":14,"schema_data":35,"social_meta":86,"head_meta":88,"extra_data":90,"updated_unix":28},"children-of-god-you-are-worth-something-sermon-concept","",{"@graph":36,"@context":85},[37,53,68],{"@type":38,"itemListElement":39},"BreadcrumbList",[40,44,48,51],{"item":41,"name":42,"@type":43,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":45,"name":46,"@type":43,"position":47},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":49,"name":12,"@type":43,"position":50},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/religion-spirituality/",3,{"item":52,"name":13,"@type":43,"position":21},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/children-of-god-you-are-worth-something-sermon-concept/150334/",{"url":52,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":62,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":63,"interactionStatistic":64},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":41,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-04","2026-08-27",true,{"@type":65,"interactionType":66,"userInteractionCount":20},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":67},"ViewAction",{"@type":69,"mainEntity":70},"FAQPage",[71,77,81],{"name":72,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":74},"为什么有些人会觉得自己一文不值？","Question",{"text":75,"@type":76},"文中以个人经历说明，世人常以外貌、智力、地位、成功等标准衡量价值；当这些标准落空或遭遇挫折时，人容易陷入“我不配”的自我评价。","Answer",{"name":78,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":79},"世界如何判断人的“价值”？",{"text":80,"@type":76},"世界主要用外貌与智力作为两大标准，并进一步用社会地位、成功、天赋、族裔背景等来“计算”人的价值。",{"name":82,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":83},"神如何看待信徒的价值？",{"text":84,"@type":76},"神首先把人看作自己的儿女，因父的爱而称他们为“children of God”。价值不是因为人有多么完美，而是因为神用基督的血买赎得来，且神的爱与价值都不会因人的错误而降低。","https://schema.org",{"og:url":52,"og:type":87,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":89,"canonical":52},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":92},[93,97,101,105,110,115,120,125,128,131,134],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":94,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":47,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":98,"show_sort_weight":99,"slug":100},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":102,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":104},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":106,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":107,"show_sort_weight":108,"slug":109},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":111,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":112,"show_sort_weight":113,"slug":114},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":116,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":117,"show_sort_weight":118,"slug":119},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":121,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":122,"show_sort_weight":123,"slug":124},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":29,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":29,"slug":133},"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":135,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":137},19,"General","general"]
