Sitting down Friday night to dinner with the friend who recommended me for the honor, we started brainstorming ideas for the mini-sessions we will run as well. I suggested a great subject for one, but it didn't quite seem right. Then I realized, it wasn't a subject to give someone else. It was supposed to be the title of my session.
"Know Your Worth " I've been asking God to show me mine for a long time... make me understand. I know I don't quite get it yet... and yet somehow He wants me to teach others.
Someone recently said, "If people truly understood their worth in Him, it would change the world."
If He is choosing me to help change some worlds, I can expect a battle... is it weird that I'm a little excited that I see it coming and feel like I can prepare?
I know I won't get it right every time. Even today, as I've struggled with the loneliness that never fails to hit me as I leave church services... I'm pretty sure God told me to go for a walk. I took a nap instead. Then I emailed some people. Then I did some reading. Now I'm writing.
It just occurred to me that truly understanding my worth would probably change my world too.
I hope I'm ready.
I hope you are too.
If you are reading this,
then it's likely that changing my world
will change yours a little as well.
The faithful love of the lord never ends! His mercies never cease.Great
is his faithfulness;his mercies begin afresh each morning.I say to
myself, “The lord is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!” The
lord is good to those who depend on him,to those who search for him.

Okay, now I'm going to go change out of my church clothes and go for a walk.
Wow. See how well this accountability blog thing works?
