WORTH MUCH MORE

WORTH MUCH MORE

It is quite likely that you possess far more worth than others typically ascribe or imagine.  Therefore, when you have given all that you have to give, try your best to mute the careless commentary of the crowd.  Instead, tune in to Heaven’s affirmations about your identity and importance.

In 17^th century France, a scholar by the name of Muretus had fallen ill.  Oddly enough, he presented himself to the medical doctors garbed in the rags of the poor.  Unaware that he was an educated man, the doctors discussed his case in Latin, thinking he would be unable to understand them.  “Faciamus experimentum in anima vili,” one physician suggested, which means “Let us try an experiment with this worthless creature.”  Imagine their shock when this apparent ‘pauper’ replied (also in Latin), “Vilem animam appellas pro qua Christus non dedignatus est mori?”  Translation: “Will you call one worthless for whom Christ did not disdain to die?” Amen.  

Appearances notwithstanding, YOU’re worth SO MUCH more.

Indeed, your value is predicated (only) on The One who sacrificially died and victoriously rose to endow your redemption, justification and eternal life.  So stop browsing through the endless pages of ‘The Majority Report.’  Seldom is it accurate, and rarely does it reflect the perspective of Heaven.  Rather, listen intently to what your Creator has to say: “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
