What is my self worth based upon?

Today i learnt that people saw my self worth through my grades. Some very unthoughtful comments coming from places i never thought they would come from. It doesn't help my current situation...

But this is what i've been thinking about. Am i really worth ONLY as much as my grades? Just a couple of As means your the best student in the world. But if your not a straight A student, your a piece of trash?

I don't think so.
Even if the world thinks that, i know my God doesn't.

He looks not at man's wisdom or actions but of a man's heart.

I can't let these things affect my emotions or my confidence, tho i can't stay ignorant of it.
I have to learn to a be a salt and light, which means a higher discipline level, an indomitable fighting spirit and a determination to always put in my best into studies, ministry and activities, which has been so daunting for me for the past 6 years of school.
But i will overcome it with my God who can do all things through me (:

With His strength, i want to do my utmost. My future is in His hands and my self-worth is priceless to Him.
I am humbled yet determined to shine.

because I want to lift Your name up high.
And show the cynical out there that You are real in my life as you are in theirs.
Help me GOd and touch my life (:

Amen.
