Remember what you are worth! The Bible says, “You were bought, not with something that ruins like gold or silver, but with the precious blood of Christ. . .” (1 Peter 1:18).
Ever feel like you have nothing? Just look at the gifts he has given you. His Holy Spirit to dwell in you, his church to encourage you, and his Word to guide you. You have been chosen by Christ. He has claimed you as his beloved. You are spoken for; engaged; set apart; called out; a holy bride! Be obsessed with your wedding date. Be intolerant of memory lapses. Write yourself notes. Do whatever you need to do to aim at what is in heaven. . .to think about only the things in heaven (Colossians 3:1-20).
You are engaged to Royalty—and your prince is coming to take you home!
