Oh friend, in all things look to the Cross

If you think you are a good person. righteous and moral...look to the Cross. Your sins as surely as nails hung Him there.

If you think that what you have, what rules you follow, and who you associate with are important....look to the Cross, they mean nothing there.

If you think you're above all others...look to the Cross. He had to be lifted up so you would not be cast down.

If you think you are lowly, unloved and worthless...look to the Cross. For love of YOU He died, so that He could be with you for all time. No one who has a God who went to such lengths to secure their salvation is anything less than utterly loved and adored.

Oh friend, in all things look to the Cross. If you should think too highly of yourself, the Cross will remind you of the sins you had to be saved from. If you ever doubt your worth, the Cross will remind you at what cost you were purchased.

Be blessed, my friends, and may you be a blessing to someone else,
-Beth Haynes Butler
