You are of great worth. There is much in store for you

Do you wonder if He knows who you are?
Do you wonder if He knows the secret pleadings of your heart?
He has numbered every sand of the sea
and He longs for you to know that He believes in you.
Can you feel the quiet power from above?
Can you feel His strength surround you when your own is not enough?
He has blessed you with His spirit from on high
and He longs for you to know it lives inside of you.
Oh, be true.
Daughter of a king, the Father's royalty
Heir to His divinity.
He's calling your name to come and take your place before His throne.
He has always known what He created you to be: 
A Daughter of a King.
You hold the promises of all eternity,
rights to claim the noble birthright you were sent here to receive
He has loved you since you lived with Him before
Let Him lead you to the gifts He has in store for you
Oh, be true.
Daughter of a king, the Father's royalty
Heir to His divinity.
He's calling your name to come and take your place before His throne.
He has always known what He created you to be: 
A Daughter of a King.
Daughters of a king, the Father's royalty
Heir to His divinity.
He's calling our names to come and take our place before His throne.
He has always known what He created us to be: 
A Daughter of a King.

I love this song! It is so wonderful and I'm pretty sure I've cried every time I've heard it--especially when I try to sing with it. God truly knows us--each and every one. He knows what you wish, what you hope, and everything that goes on in your life. All He wants is for you to come to Him in prayer and plead with Him, because He wants to give you all He has. We are all princesses. Young men, you are royalty, too. You are sons of a King with the Priesthood power which sisters in Zion fully support you with. We each have something to offer to God and He has something for each of us--everything He has He offers to us if we will follow Him. He is calling our names. He is pleading for us to "Come, follow me." How simple is that? So, let us follow Him in all that we do and say. When trials come and we are about to break, He is there to lift us up and to be our strength in times of weakness. Elder Holland stated in the April 2013 General Conference, in his talk titled, 'Lord, I believe,' "These things I declare to you with the conviction Peter called the “more sure word of prophecy.”16 What was once a tiny seed of belief for me has grown into the tree of life, so if your faith is a little tested in this or any season, I invite you to lean on mine."  Let us all strive  to follow Christ and to gain that sure testimony in Him. We receive the Holy Ghost at baptism as we are confirmed a member of the church and are granted the gift of the Holy Ghost. He is there to guide us. Let us be listening for that still, small voice and obeying the direction it gives.
I know that each of us are heirs to God's gifts. "Be loyal to the royal within" and "let your light shine before men..." and the Lord will bless you.
