Lesson from Solomon's Song

I started teaching from the book of Song of Solomon tonight at our high school worship service. I have to admit: intimidation was definitely alive and well within me as I prepared my first message out of this book. But you know what: the topic came alive. In a nutshell: think of how things could be different if each person understood and accepted their true value not based on popular media or according to "superstar" celebrity standards. Our value is based on what the Creator thinks about us. What is that? HE CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF US! If you're reading this and struggle with "who you are", remember that you were created by a God who said, "a masterpiece" when he finally finished you. You are perfectly made. Physically, you are beautiful. Now he's just got to keep working on the inside.
