Believe In Yourself - The Jesus Story
I was going through Jesus Christ's death on my bible one day when it dawned on me the intricacies of His death on the cross just so that i could be saved!
It was a time of personal reflection. I started asking myself some personal questions: what could have made Him die for me despite my Imperfections and sinful nature?, What was it about humans that could make someone to die for everyone just so we could be saved from eternal bondage?, What did He see in me that could have made Him go through all the pains he went through without giving up on the journey?...
At that point i started to see and understand my importance to Him. I mean He couldn't have died for no reason, right? If i was nothing why go through all that because of me?
Why would a blameless man become an object of disdain just so i could be called His own?
When i look deeper my self worth began to grow stronger
Because i could see my value in His pain;
Because i could see my bustle in his struggle;
Because i could see my confidence in His shame;
Because i could see my acceptance in His denial;
Because i could see my victory in His trial;
Because i could see my faithfulness in His betrayal;
Because i could see my approval in His rejection;
Because i could see my Salvation in His resurrection;
Because i could see my Life in His death.
All, because He LOVES ME....
And that to me is more than enough to ginger my swagger! - Enough to get me started!
For those who feel not good enough, not perfect enough...
For those who let their situation or sinful nature deprive them from coming closer to the throne of grace..
For those who feel they are not that important... Who feel they don't have what it takes...
I want to tell you something....
According to my bible, i don't know about yours.
But it says "while we were yet sinners Christ died for us" (Rom 5:8)
Can you see that? Did He wait for you to be perfect? Did He wait for you to be successful? Did He wait for you to be good enough? Did He wait for you to be loved by everyone?? No! He didn't wait for all that..
So why do you think you have to be good enough for you to be qualified to be His Vessel?
Why do you think you need to be perfect for Him to use you?....
Why do you think you need to be perfect for Him to love you?
Know this! As you are, He loves you beyond measures.... And He want you to start from there! You don't need to be perfect! You don't have to wait to be good enough!..
To him you are everything! Believe in yourself! The world might doubt you, they might mock you! They might laugh at you... But non of that matters because He is with you no matter what comes your way and He will see you through it all!... Coming out beautifully and wonderfully made!!🤗
Jesus Loves You❤️
