Value.
MORNING THOUGHTS ☕️
In Leviticus 27, the priests are “assessing value” to things from houses to animals to people. For example…a woman between the ages of twenty to sixty was valued at 30 shekels…a man of that age was valued at 50.
Once again, all I can think is that RELIGION tries to place a “value” on people. Oh come on, you know it’s true. Do you have valuable gifts that can serve? Prophetic insight that can draw a crowd? Do you make a lot of money so you can give large tithes?
Religiosity is no better than the world and its “value system”. Actually, I think it’s far worse because it’s cloaked in piety.
Jesus. Oh, he KNOWS your value. He knew it before you were born. He knows it even when you don’t. He doesn’t assign a value amount based on how well you perform or produce or provide money through a tithe.
Don’t let the religious system…or ANY system for that matter…assign value to you. There’s only one who can do that and he’s already made it clear just how valuable you are.
