Grace for your spirit Feb 13, 2008

Grace for your spirit
We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken ; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. II Cor 4:8-10

As disciples of Christ, we have a great value that is not diminished by difficult circumstances. We are children of the King, and are blessed with all riches. We are kind of like a $100 bill. You can take that bill, crumple it, write on it, tear it, tape it, step on it, drop it in the mud, and it is still worth $100. Like the apostle Paul, don’t despair when crushed, persecuted, and struck down. With Jesus in our life we hold our value, no matter what.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
