Have you ever stopped and asked yourself,"Does my life matter?" Have you ever wondered exactly why you are here? A parallel can be made between a field goal attempt in football and the significance of our lives. You would be hard pressed to determine a role in the pictured scenario that is more important. Yes, one may seem more glamorous but no role can be done without. Our lives are the same way. It takes each individual realizing that they are significant in their role and acting in that role for the whole group to be successful. When you consider giving up & quitting ask yourself who will be affected? No matter how you got here and under what circumstances God meant for you to be here. Everyone of us has God’s Seal of Approval. Consider the fact that we all arrived on this Earth the exact same way that Christ did. Isn't that amazing? Your purpose was so significant to God that he deemed us worthy enough to arrive the same way his only Son did. Three things to remember if you ever begin to doubt your importance are 1) You are significant to the "right" people, 2) You are significant to more than you realize, 3) You matter to your Father. In Exodus chapters 25 and 35 God shows us that no material was unworthy to adorn his tabernacle. He even called for goat hair, which may have seemed less precious than the other materials, to be used. You encounter people and situations on a daily basis that need just what you’ve got. Whether its your smile or a kind word- Give ‘em your goat hair!
Be well,
