Monday, May 18, 2015 "The Numbers Game"

We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. 2 Corinthians 10:12

Too often we measure our worth in numbers. Whether it be how much we are worth, what we weigh or even how many friends are in our circle. The truth is Jesus is the complete opposite. He was not a wealthy man nor did He have many relationships when He lived here on earth. He was always moving forward never looking back. He was wise in His decisions and very on guard with people around Him. He did not open His heart to many. The Bible speaks so clearly that we are to value our worth in Him and only Him. Not status, image, others, or wealth. So the next time you are feeling down on yourself when your flesh wants to play the numbers game, stop, be still and rebuke it. "But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh". Galatians 5:16
