ARE YOU SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH?

“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5

Jeremiah was destine from the womb and so are you. Jeremiah is not one bit more important to God than you are. From the moment you were born you’ve been a treasure to Him. You are a special creation of the Maker of Heaven and Earth.

You were made personally by God, for Himself and for His purposes.
Imagine, then, the value of something made with love and care by God Himself. The majestic and sovereign God of all creation is your creator. Just like Jeremiah you were formed by God Himself and known to him. Nothing will ever bring greater value to your life than this. Therefore, whatever you think about yourself that differs from this fact is wrong.

God has made you on purpose for a purpose.
Just as Jeremiah was “set apart” and “appointed” by God to be a prophet, God made you for a purpose that is important to Him. A purpose is important not because of what it is but because of who assigns it. You also have been set aside for a specific purpose, to be the light of God, set upon a hilltop…wherever that hilltop may be.

You may say, “But I do small things in quiet places; not big things in big places. No one really cares or knows about what I do. If, in the eyes of the world, you feel small, take heart. Consider the all seeing Eyes of a Loving Heavenly Father are on you continually.
“Indeed, the LORD watches those who fear him; those who trust in his gracious love.” Palms 33:18 International Standard Version

You are important to Him. But as you accept that you are precious in His sight, take no glory in it because the honors of the world fade into nothingness on that Final Day. However, your purpose appointed by God endures—forever!

Committed faithfulness is your key to a life of significance.
Since God has made you for a purpose, your key to significance is faithfulness. Do what He has set you apart to do without regard to anything else. Do not allow yourself to be sidetracked into whatever the world offers you in exchange; for it will be useless and valueless in the final purpose for your life.

If you are faithful to God; your life will be filled with His Grace and Glory. Not only that, but you will also be filled with joy and happiness because the greatest joy comes from serving Him. (Happiness is a by-product of being in and doing God’s will for your life.)

If you are a non-believer you are significant enough for the Son of God to die for your sins no matter how horrid they might be or have been.

If you are a Christian it is impossible for you to be insignificant.
So, Glory in the Cross and walk this world full of His love. Your significance is in His, eyes, not the world’s, other’s or even your own.

Finally, you are significant enough if you have Jesus as your Lord; you will always be significant as you can possibly be. If you don’t know Jesus as your Savior you can never be significant regardless of how much you have, what your have do, have done, or who thinks you are significant…You can’t be significant in anyway, in or to, the world that will come.

Once you belong to Jesus, you can never be more valued or more significant.
