Every affirmation in ‘Celebrate you’ is rooted in scripture. Watch the film and then read more below.

We want to you remember these important things too.

You are loved: ““I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.” Jeremiah 31:3

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:35-39

You are chosen: “You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.” John 15:16

You are precious: “Since you are precious and honoured in my sight, and because I love you, I will give people in exchange for you,
nations in exchange for your life.” Isaiah 43:4

You are powerful: “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7

You are wonderful: “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Psalm 139:14

You are amazing: “He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.” Zephaniah 3:17

You are redeemed: “In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace.” Ephesians 1:7

You are unique: “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” Psalm 139:13-16

We hope you have enjoyed taking a minute to reflect on God’s love for you, and all the gifts he has given.
