I know that I'm valuable purely because I'm created by God, but it's one thing to have knowledge of that and quite a different thing to come to comprehension of it.

Comprehending it means that I don't have to worry about impressing girls wherever I go. I don't have to worry about flirting or saying the witty thing. A wife will come from seeking Christ. I don't have to be smarter, funnier, or have more or better possessions or knowledge than everyone (or anyone) else.

In short, freedom comes. Freedom to walk around and treat women as sisters and mothers and not as prizes to be won. Freedom to let someone else be highlighted for their God-given abilities without envying. Freedom to confess struggles to a trusted person without worrying about a tarnished image. Freedom to be a slave to righteousness.

And pride suffers a punch to the face!

Jesus, thank you for my infinite worth in You.
