YOUR WORTH TO GOD | John 3:16–17

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm in the Christmas spirit. I mean, after such a strange and difficult year, I am more than ready to celebrate Christmas, and so the other night, I sat down to listen to Christmas carols, I stopped everything else I was doing just to take in the joy and beauty of Christmas music. And you know, there was one song that just reached out and grabbed me, one song that really moved me, and it was a phrase in the song O Holy Night, it is a phrase that says, long lay the world in sin and ere repining till he appeared. And the soul felt its worth. And that night as I thought about Christmas, as I thought about all the Christmas means, I was gripped by that phrase, till he appeared and the soul felt its worth. There was in this song and understanding of Christmas, an understanding of Christ coming that I don't think I find in any other carols. Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth. And I wonder, are you feeling your worth to God this Christmas. With God so loving the world that he gave his son for you and me, we feel, we know, we acknowledge, we accept, we validate our worth to God.
