I have found a new email daily devotional that I have been enjoying called "First Things First" by Christine Caine. She has such a positive outlook based on he Word of God that I want to share these with you on occasion! Here is the one from today:
| I want you to think about a dollar bill. You don’t know its history, what it has paid for or where it has been, but you do know its value. The value is determined by the United States Treasury Department that printed the bill. Do you know it is no different when God looks at you? It doesn’t matter where you have been or what you have done, God knows your value because when He looks at you He sees His Son. You are worth far more than gold. He loves you unconditionally and has a plan and purpose for your existence. So, every time you see a dollar bill, remember . . . Your worth is found in Jesus! |
AMEN! If YOU are born again, having received Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal Savior, then God is now your very own Father and YOU are His very own child. He loves YOU as much as He loves Jesus! Hard to believe? Look at John 17:23:
23 I in them and You in Me, in order that they may become one and perfectly united, that the world may know and [definitely] recognize that You sent Me and that You have loved them [even] as You have loved Me. AMP
Actually, you should read ALL of John 17 on a regular basis. This is Jesus praying for HIS own. That includes every born again believer! He sees you through the Blood of Jesus, and ONLY through that Blood! Never belittle yourself again, especially to God! He paid a very dear price to ransom you and accomplished a great and mighty work IN you, by His Spirit! What are YOU saying about the wonderful work of God? Here, to encourage you, is Hillsong Live with "Love So High":
Shalom in Him!
