How I applied the gospel to myself yesterday:
My worth doesn’t depend on how many people are in our church.
My worth doesn’t depend on how many people like my messages.
My worth doesn’t depend on how I am thought of with my friends and family.
My worth doesn’t depend on how people appreciate what I do.
My worth doesn’t depend on how influential I am.
My wroth doesn’t depend on how my children turn out.
My worth doesn’t depend on how many come to Christ through my effort.
My worth doesn’t depend on how much we have in our savings.
My worth doesn’t depend on how many degrees I have.
My worth DOES depend on what was sacrificed to redeem (buy) me.
I am worth the blood of the Son of God who co-created the heavens and the earth.
I am worth the very life of the very God!!!
That means no one’s worth more than me (since nothing is worth more than God), and I need to envy no person or lifestyle.
Net value of Apple, Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Walmart, and Berkshire Hathaway is like the gum stuck at the bottom of my shoe!
Think on that until your heart warms…
But here’s why I can’t be proud. It was ALL Jesus. He made me and bought me. I’m twice His!
Feeling down?
Take time today and construct your own list of “My worth does not depend on…”
Preach the gospel to your heart!
