The couple enjoyed going to yard sales together, and in the summer of 2007 they happened upon a small non-descript white bowl they both liked. It was only five inches in diameter, but they both agreed that the $3 price tag made it a worthwhile addition to their mantle.
It wasn’t until six years later that they decided that maybe there was more to the bowl than they originally thought, so they decided to have it appraised. Needless to say, they were shocked to find out that the bowl was over 1,000 years old, one of only two Chinese Song Dynasty bowls in existence, and that it would eventually sell for $2.2 million to an art collector.
Peter tells us in 1 Peter that "you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ."
Your value to God can’t be measured by auction houses, or numbers of followers, or the opinions of others; and unlike the yard sale bowl, the discovery of your worth is not an accident. God created you for a purpose, and He loves you immensely.
