Question: When you have something that costs a lot, do you take better care of it than if you had something that wasn’t well made or cheap?
When I ask others, and myself, this question the answer is always “Yes, absolutely.” Almost with a “Duh” attitude.
Can I tell you something? God paid a great price for you.
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
Y’all, Jesus said these words. In my bible, they are in red letters. He died for you and me. You are paid in full by The Greatest price.
Friend, YOU are valuable!
You are not cheap. So, don’t dress like it, act like it, or talk like it.
Respect yourself.
You should know that your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit that you received from God and that lives in you. You don’t own yourselves. God paid a very high price to make you his. So honor God with your body. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
I pray that you will know to know that you are worthy and valuable. When you become a Christian, the Holy Spirit (God) lives within you, so treat yourself honorably. Be reminded and encouraged to hold your head high and respect yourself.
Blessings to you and yours,
Stephanie
