"It's not worth it." The Lord gave me this slogan one day while working with a lady. As I thought about it, I wondered what it really means. It seemed a lot easier to speak than to put into practice. Yet, I began to use it while working with hurting hearts.
Little by little, I came to understand what the Lord was trying to show me. It was not worth it to get angry, or to lie, or to be anxious. The list is endless.
It is amazing what I saw take place. The Lord used this slogan to bless those with whom I shared it. It began to work in their lives. The reports that came back were wonderful.
You see, the Lord wanted me to realize that nothing was worth more than my relationship with Him. We should never allow anything hinder us from following Him wholeheartedly.
When we decide to follow Christ, it is the best choice we could ever make.
Is anything ever worth losing out with God?
I think not!
