We Are Loved!
“Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.”
Matthew 10:31
Jesus reminds us of how much we are important to God. It is important that we are reminded of this often because that may not me the message we have to deal with in self talk, or in the relationships that we have with the people we encounter on the daily basis.
Jesus lived a life that tells us that we are valuable! Our value is not based on what we have done, or how much we have, but simply because we are!
Wow!
If we truly believed that we are valuable because we are, how would that change how we approach life? Perhaps we would take better care of ourselves. Maybe we would not have to self medicate ourselves with alcohol, or drugs, or anything else we use to make ourselves feel better about ourselves!
An ouch moment!
What if we read about Jesus’ messages as much as we follow our heroes in the world, would not our lives be changed!?
My friend, God joined us in Jesus Christ Our Lord to tell us of our true worth. May we not fear but trust and become the wonderful people we were created to be!
Pax.
