The word value

My mind works in questions rather than commands on a daily basis.

So the word value:

What are your top three things you value?

What makes you value them?

If they are people, what are the qualities you value in them?

If they are things, what makes them valuable?

As we think about the things we value, have we asked what Mr. Webster says about value?

value

 noun
val·​ue | \ˈval-(ËŒ)yü  \

Definition of value 

(Entry 1 of 2)

5a numerical quantity that is assigned or is determined by calculation or measurementlet x take on positive valuesvalue for the age of the earth

AND MY FINAL QUESTION AFTER WE HEARD FROM MR.WEBSTER is...
...as 5 minutes comes to a close, and "for me" the most important question: Why does God value us? Why does God value life?
