Session Two: “Valued!” �

“You are Valued by God” Proverbs 31:10

A capable, intelligent, and virtuous woman-- She is far more precious than jewels and her value is far above rubies or pearls.

​

​

​

​

​

Have you ever priced a gemstone?

Do you know what precious stones are called?

Do you know how God decorated heaven?

​

​

True Value

• 1 Timothy 4:8�For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.

​

Worth

Your Beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.

Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.

1 Peter 3:3 & 4 (NIV)�

Worth

�…encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

1 Thessalonians 2:12

​

​

Have you ever had a friend who hurt you?

Are you a good friend to others?

How can we live our lives worthy of God?

�
