You Are Significant
Without doubt, each of us desires to be significant and important to someone. We need to know that we are valuable, worthy and have a meaning in life. God created you valuable and worthy; you are precious to Him. You are more precious than all the gold and riches in the world. Sin, through Adam, separated all of us from God. Every Truth and reality about our identity in God was lost. But our hunger for value and worth remain.
The ONLY way to satisfy the hunger for significance is to believe what God days about you in the Bible. |
We seek many ways to answer this search for meaning and value. Whether it be relationships, position at work or acquiring wealth, we seek ways to find significance. None of these give any lasting satisfaction. Instead they only intensify our search and longing. Either we try harder to perform and be better, faster, smarter or we finally give up and try to find ways to drown and quiet the desire through addictions, perfectionism, being a workaholic and a myriad of other ways. The ONLY way to satisfy the hunger for significance is to believe what God says about you in the Bible. The moment you believe the Gospel, you are granted a new identity (and nature) which is based on the work and merit of Jesus Christ. Nothing will ever be able to change God's work and His Truth!

YOU ARE GOD'S WORKMANSHIP
Ephesians 2:10 - You are significant and valuable to God -- you are His workmanship. You do not exist by chance or accident. God uniquely created you on purpose for a purpose. You are valuable and have a worthy calling; to know God and share Him with others. Our blog talks about you calling and purpose in more depth. |

YOU ARE PERFECT
You are significant because (through Christ) you are perfect, entire and complete, lacking nothing. What God has declared good, let no one (including yourself) declare otherwise. God has declared you valuable; His Truth stands for all eternity. He has such an abundance of love and hope to pour into your life. All He asks is that you believe.

SUMMARY OF YOUR IDENTITY IN CHRIST
Christ is the answer to our longings for acceptance, security and value/worth. After the Fall, God's Truth about us was lost. His Truth never changed, but we no longer had the connection with Him to realize and experience the Truth. God provided a way, through His Son Jesus Christ, to reconcile you back to Himself and establish His Truth in your life again. You were created to be acceptable and valuable to God, with ALL assurance that His Truth never changes. He is forever faithful. Ask God to reveal the Truth of who you are in Christ Jesus. If you could grasp a fraction of His Truth, your life would be radically different. God loves you immensely and has ONLY the absolute BEST in store for you. Give Him a chance!
