What Are You Worth?
November 30, 2016
It was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed . . . but with the precious blood of Christ.
1 Peter 1:1819
There is a story that in 75 bc a young Roman nobleman named Julius Caesar was kidnapped by pirates and held for ransom. When they demanded 20 talents of silver in ransom (about $600,000 today), Caesar laughed and said they obviously had no idea who he was. He insisted they raise the ransom to 50 talents! Why? Because he believed he was worth far more than 20 talents.
What a difference we see between Caesars arrogant measure of his own worth and the value God places on each of us. Our worth is not measured in terms of monetary value but by what our heavenly Father has done on our behalf.
What ransom did He pay to save us? Through the death of His only Son on the cross, the Father paid the price to rescue us from our sin. It was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ (1 Peter 1:1819).
God loved us so much that He gave up His Son to die on the cross and rise from the dead to ransom and rescue us. That is what you are worth to Him.
Father, thank You for the love You have shown to me and for the price You paid for my forgiveness. Help my life to be an ongoing expression of gratitude, for You are the One whose worth is beyond measure.
Our worth is measured by what God paid to rescue us.
In todays reading Peter tells his readers that Christ has redeemed them from an empty way of life. In the original language, the word translated redeemed (v. 18) means to set free. It is often used when talking about slaves who have been liberated from their bondage. They had been set free from the bondage of a futile and useless way of life that has been handed down to them from their ancestors. And this redeeming love of Christ was present even before sin entered the equation (vv. 18-20). Have you ever thought about the fact that Christ loves you knowing everything about you, even your sin? How does it make you feel that you have been or can be set free from the slavery of sin and death?

You Are Grounded |
You feel like you live a life of abundance. There is so much in your life to feel thankful for. Making the little things wonderful is important to you, and you try to add a bit of comfort to each day.
You often help others with their problems. You offer practical and workable solutions. You stick with what works and avoid novelty for its own sake. You know there is no need to reinvent the wheel. |

You Are Quirky |
You laugh at life; none of it can be taken too seriously. You have a high craziness threshold. You are entertaining and a total charmer. You know how to liven up a group of friends.
You respect the earth and truly love nature. You wish that everyone was able to live in harmony. People are frustrated by your great potential, but you love your unconventional life. You aren't going to change to make others happy. |

You Are Free Wheeling |
You are easily awed by the world. There's so much out there to inspire, delight, and tickle you. You are deeply grateful and appreciative. You're thankful for the life you have.
Your thoughts are big and bold. Your mind has no inhibitions. You don't like to make plans or predictions. You are sure of yourself but unsure of where life will take you. |
