Where do you place your value? Where does your identity come from? What do you think of yourself?
I used to be so self absorbed…Me,Me,and Me.
Never really thinking about others. Only myself.
Image is what I was all about. That’s where my value was.
Then it happened…a crisis…what I viewed as a crisis has been my saving grace. God used to be so far out of the picture, I didn’t think of Him to be at all relevant in my life.
I was so wrong. I was so blind (of course, I didn’t think so at the time).
God works in crazy ways…good crazy ways. He somehow turned things around to where I can clearly see. I mean, I see things differently. A new perspective on life.
I think the most important thing I’ve learned (although it was most certainly the hardest), is that my value (or your value) has nothing to do with how you look, what you wear, the job you have, what you’ve accomplished, the “stuff” you’ve accumilated…My value and identity (and yours) has everything to do with who you belong to.
