"Man began in God. You are the greatest idea that God has ever had!"
Francois du Toit
"My dear children, you come from God and belong to God."
1 John 4:4
We aren't simply earthly creatures. We came from God Himself, first imagined in His perfect wisdom and adored by His loving heart. We weren't an accident or mistake. We were beautifully planned, loved and delighted in before we even appeared on this earth at all! You began in the heart of God. You are so precious, delightful and special to God, your very source and origin! You don't belong to this world but to God Himself, who thought of you and made you in His very own image. You bear the family likeness of God Himself! You are priceless to God, His treasured and dear child. Nothing could change that.
A thought: My beginning was in heaven, not on earth.
