You are unique in all the universe. Billions have existed, but there is only one you.

You are known to God. The Lord Jesus said, 'Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.' (Matthew 10:29-31)

So if the hairs of your head are numbered, God knows who you are. He knows your thoughts, your hopes, your dreams. He knows your past. He knows your future.

Moreover, God does not throw away life. That is why the soul is eternal. The Lord Jesus said, 'And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living:...' (Mark 12:26-27)

God spoke to Moses, long after the time of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Yet, He did not say, 'I was the God of Abraham.' He said, 'I am the God of Abraham.' God does not allow His children to pass out of existence. Abraham's body was dead, but his soul was alive with God. And, someday, his body would be raised in the resurrection. (For humans are not meant to be disembodied spirits. We were created to be physical beings throughout eternity.)

Since you are unique in all the universe, treat your life with respect. Love God, love others, and love yourself.
