The Value of a Soul
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“Ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold,...but with the precious blood of Christ.” 1 Peter 1:18-19
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I was talking to a man who sold real estate and asked, “What determines the worth of a piece of property?” He said, “What a person is willing to pay for it.” It doesn’t matter how much you paid for it yourself. It’s what a person is willing to pay to have it for himself. That makes me want to shout! You and I must be worth something if Jesus would pay His life to have us for His own. Jesus is the proof of how much we’re worth.
ACTION POINT:
Do you know how much you weigh? Call a jeweler or a bank today and ask how much your weight is worth in gold. That’s no comparison to your worth in blood.
