"And so we keep on praying for you, that our God will make you worthy of
the life to which he called you. And we pray that God, by his power,
will fulfill all your good intentions and faithful deeds." 2
Thessalonians 1:11 (NLT)
Jesus paid the highest price. He died for us. Through His death and
suffering and now His life we are forgiven, accepted by God and given
the responsibility and ability to live for God. Are we worthy of Jesus'
death?
Without Him we are nothing. Without Him we are lost. Yet God said we
are worth Jesus' death.
Is living for Him worth it all? The Christian life is not easy. In
fact sometimes, it is tougher than we ever imagined. So, is it worth
living for Him?
Yes it is worth it all. Why? Jesus gave His life. Why can't we?
Yes it is worth it all. Why? People need to know Jesus. Why can't we
influence them?
Yes it is worth it all. Why? Because God has called us to serve Him by
serving and encouraging others.
Worth it all. It is that. Our investment in Christ lets others know we
mean business with our relationship with Jesus. What are we willing to
give? Maybe, what are we willing to give up?
For you, is it worth it all?
"And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies
to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice-the kind he will accept.
When you think of what he has done for you, is this too much to ask?"
Romans 12:1 (NLT)
