Last night we started a four-week series at our church with the topic of "Self-Esteem"
We tend to have a problem with healthy self-esteem; either too high and too low. Our discussion centered a lot around low self-esteem. It seems to be a common problem in our culture. For us.
One line that stood out for me on our handout:
"God has determined our value based on His purpose for creating us in the first place and on the price He has paid to redeem us for all eternity."
We are to remember that God loves us........and the Bible confirms it:
""Even if we were good. we really wouldn't expect anyone to die for us, though of course, that might be barely possible. But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners."
(Romans 5:7 - 8 LAB)
And there were five more verses: John 3:16; 1 John 3:1; 1 John 4:8 - 10; Romans 8:38 - 39 with similar actions of His Love for each of us.
Thank You, God,
for Your Love and Care!
Sometimes we forget!!
Amen.
