Acts 13:46---Then Paul
and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should
first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge
yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
Many of us feel
we do not measure up.
Many of us
feel we are not quite good enough.
Realistically,
no one can be the best at everything.
No one can
"measure up" in every part of life.
All of us
have deficiencies and faults.
However,
should we carry a burden on our back because we feel we are not quite good
enough?
No, we
should not carry such a burden.
The reason
we should not carry this kind of dark burden is that in Christ's eyes we ARE
good enough.
In Christ's
eyes, we were good enough He was willing to die for us.
In Christ's
eyes, His destination for us in the world and heaven is such a glorious
destination, the idea of your not being quite good enough is ridiculous to Him.
As a child
of God, you are more than worthy.
As a child
of God, you can exceed all expectations of what the world expects a person to
be.
To think
about your trying to measure up to a defective yardstick the world creates is
total foolishness.
In Christ,
you measure up.
In Christ,
you are called one of His own.
