A reminder for
today
And we have seen
and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. (1
John 4:14)
It has been a challenging week and there is still much to do
here on our side. Our release has faced a number of ups and downs and we are
fighting to get things done to be in time for our November deadline. How are
things on your side, my friend? I have written a number of times on how much
you are worth and how you should look at yourself. Yesterday as I was on my way
to do my cardio session the song “Matter” played on my play list and I just got
deep feeling that today I need to tell you that you matter.
It is a huge issue in today’s world were people feel that
they do not matter and a terrible burden of depression lies on them. People
feel that they are not worth anything and in many cases these thoughts lead to
substance abuse and suicide. Why is this a huge lie that the enemy conjured up
to hurt us and destroy people? You see Jesus came to this world for a number of
reason and each one of them points to you and me. He came to be our saviour and
to set us free from these lies. Jesus wanted to let you understand that you are
so important to Him and your life matters so much that He gave up his life for
you. But He did not just hand it over and that was that. Jesus was captured
(arrested) and the beaten. He was falsely accused and tortured and finally He
was hated and crucified.
Jesus went through a massive and horrific punishment to give
you a glimpse of the importance that you have for Him and how much He loves you
regardless your flaws and mistakes. He knows what you are going through so He
gave all to carry the weight of sin so that you do not have to bear it. He took
your punishment on your behalf to proof to you how much you matter.
When I say you matter I mean you are just as important to
God as anyone else. You are no less than the people around you and you are not
loved less. You are so special that He would do all that and continue to
forgive you even when we feel we are unforgivable. Jesus knows how relentless
the enemy is so He made it clear that the enemy has nothing on you anymore,
because the minute you called His name as your saviour you are set free and
there is nothing the enemy can do to change that, except to tell you lies and
try to confuse you.
You are wonderfully and perfectly crafted and you are loved
so much. There is nothing that can separate or remove you from the love of God
and there is no one that can accuse you when you are forgive. This world may
keep it against you, but God sees your heart and in the end, it is all that
matters for this world will not last, but God’s kingdom is forever.
Therefore, my dear friend, you matter more than you know.
Lord, thank you for giving us so much and thank you for
loving us so much. Lead us away from the lies of the enemy and deliver us from
evil. Keep us safe in your arms and be with us through this day as we show your
love to other. In Jesus name.
Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
