You are valuable.

valuable |ˈvalyə(wə)bəl|
noun (usu. valuables)
something that is of great worth
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much MORE VALUABLE than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? 

And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Matthew 6.25-34.

Grades. Future Occupation. Income. Marriage. 

Your heavenly Father knows what you need, you of little faith. He's provided for the birds and for the grass. Do you not think that He's going to provide for you? HE SENT HIS ONLY SON OUT OF A PERFECT PLACE TO A IMPERFECT PLACE, TO DIE FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF YOUR SINS! YOU ARE VALUABLE. But he says to "seek FIRST (not second, not later, not after you graduate, not after your married, not after you get a job) His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well"

Be reminded of this:
-Seek Him
-Seek Him 
-Seek Him
-He provides for birds and animals to eat, he provides for grass to grow.
-He says that you are valuable
-If you believe that those are just words, He put those 'words' into life. His son Jesus Christ.
-More than that He sent His son down to die and rise for the forgiveness of sins
-Jesus Christ (God, fully man and fully God), said that you are valuable.
