Mark 10:45
"For even I, the Son of Man, came here not to be served but to serve others and to give my life as a ransom for many."
My husband and I collect antiques and often argue about their value. He'll say, "This is worth five hundred dollars." And I'll reply, "It's not worth anything unless someone is willing to buy it!" Worth, just like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.
An appraiser may place high value on an item, and a dealer may ask any price he or she chooses, but if nobody buys it, the antique is virtually worthless to the seller. Nothing is worth more than what someone's willing to pay for it.
Even your worth and mine are determined by how much someone would pay for us. There is someone who values us enough that He paid an outlandish price for our purchase. Jesus paid the ultimate price by giving His own life for ours. God values us so much that He gave up His own Son to redeem us. The Creator of the universe was willing to give His life in exchange for your. By Marsha Jordan

Thank God for paying such a high price to redeem us. He paid the price by giving His own life for us.
