Proverbs 12

Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant than pretend to be somebody and have no food (Proverbs 12:9).

Why do we spend so much time behind our masks of insecurity? Who told us that we are not of worth? I am a child of God. Created by my Father of perfection. My God loves me for who I am and not what I want Him to think I am. With that so, why do I worry so much about what the world may think of me. But I do! I spend immeasurable amounts of energy spent on my earthly façade while I spend a relatively small amount of energy on my eternal relationship with God.

It is truly better to have the service of Christ and admit that we are not worthy of the treasures of heaven than to behave in arrogance and inherit our just compensation, i.e., nothing.

Peace
