The faulty
reasoning of society teaches us that those who have more power or money are
worth more. That is disproven when we see the attitude and behavior of some
successful individuals. On the other hand, certain humble people add value
wherever they go, whatever they do.
Many people
are underemployed, or unemployed, through no fault of their own. That doesn’t
mean they are worth less. Everyone has their part to play. I Corinthians, chapter 12, addresses the subject of different but
equal. The selection says that there are various spiritual gifts and parts of
the body, but they are all equally
valuable and useful. The hand cannot tell the foot he doesn’t have any use
for it, and so on. Every body part is an important cog in the wheel.
Anne
She is a
friend who’s a college graduate. She cleans a medical building for a living. The
job doesn’t pay much money. Some people might wonder how she ended up in her
situation.
Her compelling
story isn’t as important as the pride she
takes in fulfilling her duties. She
knows that her job is as crucial to the success of the organization as those
who get paid more. Medical professionals absolutely cannot do their jobs
efficiently in a messy, unsanitary atmosphere.
Me
My husband
earns about 99% of the money in my family right now. My domestic responsibility
is different, but equally important. I take care of chores and errands. I keep
things running smoothly at home, and I make sure my kids’ needs are taken care
of.
I spend
quite a bit of time making calls. I make calls for repairs and professional services.
Without me, my family would probably be faced with these things:
- Messy house
- Very little food and medicine
- No rides to appointments for my daughter
- Dirty laundry
- Broken-down cars
- Broken appliances
- Lower grades in History and English for my daughter
Quotes on Self-Worth From Bishop T.D.
Jakes’ Identity
“You have a divine purpose.”
************
“…God…has marked you with purpose. He has fashioned you for destiny.
“
*************
“You are not a cosmic accident; you are the intricate handiwork of
the God of Purpose. You have been placed in this moment, at this hour, in this
season of history to fulfill your purpose in your generation.”
*************
“You have something to release, and you have something to receive.
Yes, you. I don’t care what you’re doing right now. I don’t care if you are a
multimillionaire or some broke college student living off noodles and peanut
butter.”
