World Population: 7,063,000,000 (2012)

How many of “You” is there – Just 1

= 1 made like you, 1 made with your friends, 1 made with your abilities, 1 made with your colour hair, eyes, personality… 1 alone… 1 with your smile, your lips, your appearance… 1 only 1

= You are God’s Creation, Unique, Individual, Worth everything to God… Worth everything to Jesus… In fact… He gave His Life for “You” --- The 1.

Ps. 139:13For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. 14I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
