Sense of worth = an internal awareness that as created creatures of God we have value
How does God’s delight in us inform our sense of worth?
- Concept of mutual delight, God to us and us to God
Struggle with worth - Delight is not determined by what I do.
- Seeing our worth based on our relationships with people
- Worth based on what we do or my performance
Engaging in God out of response
- playing from delight v playing for it
- what is our vantage point of God? Father of Love v. Father of Judgement
Our worth within the narrative of God’s plan:
Creation to New Creation
Holding the tensions of life together to see God’s delight is still with us in difficult things:
repentance and delight
the now and not yet
