He left the splendor of Heaven, Knowing his destiny. Those 2 lines from probably my favorite gospel song always makes me ponder just how important my life is to God. The Bible and many of my favorite Gospel songs are full of indications that God is just crazy in love with us. Just to think that when he came to earth he knew his destiny was to give up his life to pave the way to salvation. Paying the price for a guilty sinner like me. I try to understand how anyone could love me that much that he would be willing to die for my sins. How many times have we looked in the mirror and placed judgment on ourselves saying such hurtful things like you are ugly, you don’t deserve to be loved. I’m sure the list goes on and on. You could probably add more to my list I am sure we have all been there. But the truth of the matter is that it does not matter what we think. God the creator made you and me and he decides what we are worth. We don’t get a vote. I was listening to someone on TV last night and they said something to the fact that he is the potter and we are the clay. The pot does not get to tell the potter what the pot is worth. The potter tells the pot what it is worth. How true is that and just think how many times we try to put a price on our life. Sometimes we think we are the best thing since sliced bread and other times we are beating ourselves up. I have never been a fan of New Year’s Resolutions, but I think I will make a New Life Resolution. I want to stop putting worth on my life and accept that Jesus loves me so much and I am priceless. How rude of me to try to insult what the Lord has made. I know that God does not make Junk and he see’s more in me that I will ever see in myself. So Today when you look in the mirror don’t insult the potter, You compliment that clay and thank God that he picked that mud up and made someone in his own likeness.
to end where I began… It Had to be Love.
Blessings till I post again.
